It's The Most Wonderful Time of The Year

The end of the term had come and gone, and soon it was Christmas, to celebrate that year, All the 13s were invited to the Brighton residence for the holidays. But of course, Emily and the Mcintosh brothers weren't doing so well, with this being the first big holiday to not spend with Principal Hatt… Yeah they aren't doing so hot. That Christmas eve Emily and Patrick were thinking about him whilst Donald and Douglas were dealing with…

Gordon: I'm just saying Percy, I think it's childish to still believe in a man that doesn't even exist.

Percy: But you should still try to keep the image alive for others who still believe.

James: Trust me Percy, if Santa was real (to which I assure you he's not) he would be a criminal in several countries.

Percy: But, But… Grrr!

Toby: Just leave them Percy.

Thomas: You three better not spoil that in front of my sisters.

Henry: Of course not, Thomas. We know better than that.

Donald: Aye, an' a' did ye ken if ye shut yer traps, ye kin stoap saying th' opinion that na jimmy or wifie asked fur?

Everyone minus Donald, Douglas, Gordon, James, and Henry: (Oooh Cat - Puss in Boots)

Gordon: What cheek, fancy speaking to me like that, me who never had any incidents.

Duck: Aren't jammed gym whistles and twisted ankles incidents.

Gordon: No indeed. high spirits, might happen to anybody. But to tumble down the hill like Pat a long time ago, well I ask you, is it right? Is it decent?

James: Say, where's Patrick?

Oliver: I saw him and Emily up in their room, just looking out into the falling snow, & I think I heard Emily crying.

Henry: Oh, right. This is the first Christmas, those two and you lads aren't spending it with Sir Topham Hatt.

Douglas: Noo ye git it chap.

James: Chaps, I think we made a huge mistake by arguing

Gordon: Indeed, we should go and help them out.

Toby: Good idea Gordon. Come on mates.

(The group head to the duo's room, Thomas and Edward sit either side of Patrick and Emily)

Duck: How are you holding up?

Patrick: What do you think?

James: Sorry for forgetting about your situation.

Emily: Tis a'richt.

Edward: It's obviously not ok.

Oliver: If you two are feeling homesick then you can still talk with us. I'm sure you are already aware of that.

Gordon: We are here for you.

Percy: Every step of the way.

Toby: If you can't stand up now, that's ok.

Oliver: Because we are here for you both.

Henry: And you lads too.

Thomas: You're going to be ok. We will stick together through everything. To the very end.

Patrick: Ok, now I'm touched. (Pat hugs Edward as Emily hugs Thomas)

Emily: Ta a' sae muckle.

Donald and Douglas: Aie, Thank ye all.

James: No problem.

Duck: Say, why don't we all do something together?

Thomas: I can ask my parents if we can go ice skating?

Patrick: That sounds good. What do you think of Emily?

Emily: Ah say, let's dae it.

Thomas: Ok, let's go.

(After that, (And a little couple moment with Thomas and Emily) they played in the snow for a while, meanwhile Thomas' neighbour Whiff Worsdell, a nerdy kind of kid with a love for garbage, science and inventions went to the backyard to find the others to showcase his newest creation.)

Whiff: Greetings and Merry Christmas 13s, what brings you all round these parts?

Oliver: And Happy Holidays to you Whiff, we are all here for a Special Christmas sleepover. Me and Montigue were having a snowball fight with Donald, Douglas, James, Percy, and Toby. (A snowball landed on his back hard) Too which I just lost. Patrick and Gordon are building snowmen (And women)

(Patrick looked to Gordon's Snowwoman with great confusion)

Gordon: Um, I can explain.

Thomas, Emily, and Henry are making snow angels… And Devils.

(Thomas and Emily looked at their snow angels with pride which turned to fear at the sight of Henry's snow devil.)

Henry: What?

And Edward is trying to make a sledding hill.

(Edward was just shovelling snow into a small corner with James and Percy looking out to him.)

James: Just Pathetic. You would never catch me doing that Perc. I am more sophisticated than that. And more athletic and handsome too. (A snowball hits James in the head and knocks him to the ground.)

Duck: Ha! Got you that time James!

James: HA HA!

Whiff: Ah. I see, well I wanted to show you my new invention.

Patrick: Did you finish that new physics gun replica from Garry's Mod yet?

Whiff: That is on the back burner until I can find a properly ethical power source. What I wanted to show you is this. (showed a rainbow coloured cube with a handle on the side)

Gordon: Did you make a music box?

Whiff: Nope, see there is no lid. This is the Musical-O-Matic 4200. Basically I crank this handle, and can make anyone in its radiance burst into song Singing in the Rain style.

Henry: Pull the other one, there's no way that's possible.

Whiff: Then prepare to be proven wrong. (Whiff cranked the handle on the side of the Musical-O-Matic 4200 and then Music started coming out of seemingly nowhere, then Patrick and Toby ran to a wide section of the yard, and put on Santa hats with bells on their ends.)

Toby & Patrick: Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring

Snowing' and blowing' up bushels of fun

Patrick: Now, the jingle hop has begun

Toby: Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time

Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square

Toby & Patrick: In the frosty air

Patrick: What a bright time, it's the right time

Toby & Patrick: To rock the night away

Jingle bell time is a swell time

Patrick: To go gliding' in a one-horse sleigh

Toby: Giddy up, jingle horse, pick up your feet

Jingle around the clock

Mix and a-mingle in the jingling' feet

That's the jingle bell rock

Gordon: You mad scientist, it's working.

Henry: I take back what I said before. This is something else.

Thomas: You gotta hand it to Pat. His singing is quite on point.

James: Yeah, Toby ain't too bad either.

Toby: What a bright time, it's the right time

To rock the night away

Jingle bell time is a swell time

To go gliding' in a one-horse sleigh

Toby & Patrick: Giddy up, jingle horse, pick up your feet

Patrick: Jingle around the clock

Toby & Patrick: Mix and a-mingle in the jingling' feet

That's the jingle bell…

That's the jingle bell rock!

(The duo take a bow as the 13s applaud them for the performance)

Patrick: Wow! Is there a way I can get one of those Whiff? That is incredible.

Whiff: Well if you want one so bad, take mine, I know how to make another. (Handed Patrick the Musical-O-Matic 4200)

Patrick: Oh my, Thank you.

Whiff: Think of it as an early Christmas gift to you.

Mr. Worsdell: Come on Son. Dinner time.

Whiff: Coming Dad! Bye Everyone, Merry Christmas!

13s: Merry Christmas Whiff.

Emily: We shuid heid ben as weel. It's getting a bawherr mirk, 'n' th' streetlights ur starting tae c'moan.

Duck: Capital idea Emily. C'mon everyone.

(Dinner was nice. I mean, Mr. Brighton made pizzas in the shape of Christmas trees. After that, there was some hanging out in the front shed and watching some Christmas specials.)

Patrick: No! We are not watching a Hallmark Special!

James: Why not?

Gordon: You just had to ask, didn't you?

Patrick: Becuase there is no appeal to them. It's the same old story about an overworked, single, 30-something brunette taking a nostalgic trip back to her home in any-town-name USA at Christmas, when her Prius breaks down and a second-rate Chris Pine shows up in a 70s F100, and he's a Christmas tree salesman. But guess what, He's fixing up the old Amberson homestead into a Bed and Breakfast, and she agrees to help him while they are on a date, riding a carousel because she's missed out on love, and YADDA YADDA YADDA, AT NORSHEM! This is just absolutely baffling why they continue to make these things and people STILL CHECK THEM OUT LIKE IT'S NOT THE 153RD ONE THEY'VE SEEN! UGH!

(The others were surprised at Patrick's rant. Percy, and Emily were hiding behind a table quivering at the sight)

Patrick: (Breathes slowly) Sorry about that, I just… Really hate these kinds of specials.

Edward: How about A Charlie Brown Christmas?

Patrick: Now that's a special I can get with.

Duck: Alright, let's go.

(One Special Later)

Emily: That wis braw.

Gordon: Indeed, Charles M Schulz was a genius.

James: Hey, Where's Pat?

Patrick: Over here, Come over.

(The group come to Pat who was just look outside the window, at the new fallen snow)

Henry: I don't get it, what are you looking at?

Patrick: It's this moment. With the snow covered cul de sac, the light of the streetlights and the hedges nearby, looking so pretty in the snow, tinted blue by the moon, silent and majestic. And you suddenly take in that moment, where all seems at peace with the world, And you want to grab onto it, but you can't you just let it flow through and settle. The moment may soon be gone, but the memory is forever, in that moment, you truly feel… good inside.

Edward: (Wipes a tear from his eyes) That was beautiful.

(Patrick smiles to his friend and realises what he said also affected the others. Henry, James, and Gordon are hugging each other tightly. Percy and Emily were holding onto Thomas sobbing (With the blue coloured student also shedding a tear). Duck and Oliver are lying on a nearby couch huddled together glad to be with each other. And Donald & Douglas sitting behind Pat before rushing up to give the yellow coloured student a hug. He sees this and returns the favour.)

Patrick: I love you guys.

Thomas: We love you too.

James: I think that is the best thing to end the night on, what do you all say?

Donald: Aye, noo let's a' huv a go tae git some shut yak, tis yule mornin' th'morra.

(Everyone agrees, and before long, the 13s were all fast asleep in their sleeping bags, with stockings hung by the fireplace with care, in hopes that a certain someone soon would be there.

(See what I did there)

It's A Magic Carpet on the Rails That Never Takes A Rest

It was late that night when something stirred outside, that no one could understand or comprehend. The whole shed started to shiver and shake, which was like an Earthquake was happening outside. Everyone woke to a start and rushed outside only to see a giant steam locomotive with the Number 1225 to come by and slowly stop in front of the Brighton's front door. The 13s could not believe what they were seeing.

Patrick, Donald and Douglas: What in Laird Callen's castle!?

Percy: Is everyone seeing what I am seeing?

Toby: Is it a giant passenger train over on the road which now has rails.

Patrick: Ok, glad to know I'm not the only one going crazy.

(Suddenly a figure of a man can be seen through the steam along with a strange light)

Mystery Man: All Aboard! All Aboard!

(When the others finally saw the man in full, they could see it was a guard but with the nameplate on his jacket which read 'Mr. Conductor', holding an old-fashioned lantern. He came in front of the group with a look of calmness and friendliness.)

Mr. Conductor: Well, you coming?

Thomas: Coming where?

Mr. Conductor: Why to the North Pole of course! This is the Polar Express!

James: Wait, Polar Express? As in, the Polar Express? From the movie?

Mr. Conductor: No, the one from the book, of course the one from the movie.

Percy: Is this real?

Toby: If not, we are having an extreme case of Hypothermia.

Duck: Um, Pat? What do you think we should do?

Patrick: That depends, should we hop on board?

(Everyone debated this for a few moments, then they all collectively agreed.)

Patrick: Count us in!

Mr. Conductor: Glad to hear it, follow me. (Helps the 13s onto the train) Woah, watch your step, Miss.

(In the passenger coach, there were other kids, but only one looked familiar to Pat and the others.)

Patrick: Murdoch?

Murdoch: Hmm? och, awright guys.

Everyone in the 13s except for Patrick: Hello Murdoch.

Murdoch: Ah wis hoping that ye wid be 'ere, Pat. Ah wanted tae apologise aboot whit happened back then.

Patrick: It's quite alright mate, Really it should be me apologising for not bracing when you warned me, you sure showed me, and then some. You didn't get in trouble did you?

Murdoch: Only a stern talking to with Sir Topham Hatt and my parents. It's alright.

Patrick: Oh, so… Are we cool?

Murdoch: Yes we are.

Patrick: That's nice to hear. But why are you here? ! And what did I just say?

Murdoch: (Chuckles) It's my friend Arthur. I'm sure you know him, the red one from Norramby. The one who rescued Thomas after he fell into the docks during that field trip.

13s: Oh yeah!

Arthur: Did someone mention me? Oh, Hi guys.

13s: Hi.

Murdoch: Ah git brought alang efter ah fun oot he didnae hawp in Santa. Whit aboot ye?

(The group looked at James, Henry, and Gordon with a cold glare)

Murdoch: Och.

Arthur: Well at least we won't be all alone here.

Duck: Indeed. This is quite unreal.

Brainy Kid: Hey you lot? You know what train is this?

Edward: Um… Passenger?

Brainy Kid: No, I'm talking about the locomotive at the front.

Edward: Oh, then we don't know.

Brainy Kid: The train is a Baldwin 2-8-4 S3-class Berkshire type steam locomotive built at the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1931 and weighs 456,100 pounds.

Girl: Well I think of it as a magical train.

Edward: And you aren't wrong to believe that, my dear.

Patrick: Hmm, not bad, kid. But there are a couple errors, this is a Pere Marquette which weighs 442,500 pounds, I think. And is a member of the N1 class built at the Lima Locomotive Works in 1941. With a tractive effort of 69,350 lbf. But still, not bad. Names Pat.

Brainy Kid: Oh. Well, my name is…

Mr. Conductor: Tickets! Tickets Please!

James: Oh, I remember this part. (Looks in his pocket and pulls out a golden ticket.) Hah! Knew it. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory anyone?

Toby: Never really made a connection before, but I suppose you have a point. (Pulls his ticket out of his pockets.) Certainly, glad we all got PJs with pockets in them.

Percy: So, Gordon, what do you think?

Gordon: How do you mean, little Percy?

Percy: C'mon, Polar Express, you already know what's coming.

Gordon: Oh that. Um… I'll get back to you on that.

Patrick: So what did Everyone get on their tickets?

Henry: Me, Gordon, Arthur, and James got B E.

Patrick: Me and the brainy kid got L E.

Girl: Same here.

Patrick: Oh, yes. Of course. Sorry, I didn't catch your name.

Girl: Oh, my name is Kara. Kara Cupper. I come from a sleepy town called Shining Time. I spend most of my time at the train station. My friend Becky is here also.

Becky: Hi.

Kara: Along with Danny Jones, Or Dan for short.

Danny: Hello there.

Toby: Hello there.

Patrick: Fascinating. What about you two, and the rest of you?

Becky: B R.

Danny: T R.

Thomas: I got B R too.

Percy: Same.

James: Ha! British Rail!

Gordon: Very Drole, James.

Percy: Agreed.

Edward: What did you get Emily my dear?

Emily Ah an' a' git T R.

Toby: Same here.

Edward: Me too.

Murdoch: Ah git P Rr. A' body else?

Donald and Douglas: Ower 'ere mukker.

Duck: Look Oliver, I got E N.

Oliver: Same.

Thomas: What could these new ones mean?

Patrick: Search me, I have no clue.

Mr. Conductor: Next stop, 11344… Edbrooke.

Arthur: New passenger coming aboard.

(A kid in grey and shaded green pjs came up to Mr. Conductor but hesitated to get on but as the train departed, he tried to get on before falling in the snow)

Brainy Kid: Hey, that kid can't get on.

(Acting instinctively, Gordon pulled the emergency brake causing the whole train to stop, as the boy climbed aboard, he looked to the other coach with everyone in it but turned and sat in the observation coach.)

Mr. Conductor: WHO IN THE BLAZES APPLIED THAT EMERGENCY BRAKE!

Brainy Kid: He did! (Points to Gordon)

Gordon: Oh, the indignity.

Patrick: Hold on, Mr. Conductor sir, I know you might be mad, but he had to let that boy on board.

(Mr. Conductor looked to the observation coach and saw the boy sitting inside.)

Mr. Conductor: Right, Nice instinct there. Well done young man. But let's have no more of that huh? We have a schedule to keep to. You of all people should be aware of that.

Gordon: Understood sir, my sincere apologies.

Mr. Conductor: No worries, this isn't the first time, and I am sure it won't be the last. Now everyone, take your Seats!

(Everyone sat down in their seats)

Mr. Conductor: Who wants some refreshments?

(Everyone was excited at the prospect)

Mr. Conductor: Right.

Murdoch: Ah think we a' knoo whit's comin' up.

Duck: One of the most memorable moments from the film.

Donald: Awright, padruig, uise that wee reels 'n' strathspeys kist o' yer's, see whit happens.

Patrick: Ok. (Cranks the handle on the side of the Musical-O-Matic 4200)

(And like the aforementioned film, waiters came in and started dancing to the music, but unlike the film, The 13s and their new friends joined in on the fun.)

(No brackets mean Mr. Conductor/13s and the brackets mean Waiters)

(Hot! Hot!) Mr. C: Ooh, we got it!

(Hot! Hot!) Duck: Hey, we got it!

(Hot! Hot!) Oliver: Say, we got it!

(Hot chocolate!)

(Hot! Hot!) Gordon: Oh, we got it!

Ensemble: Hot! Hot! Hey, we got it!

(Hot! Hot!) Ensemble: Whoa, we got it!

(Hot! Hot!) Ensemble: Yeah, we got it!

(Hot! Hot!) Ensemble: Whoa, we got it!

(Hot! Hot!) Ensemble: Yeah, we got it!

Mr. C: Hot Chocolate!

Flying Through the Mountains & the Snow

(The crowd cheered for the performance as the 13s and their new friends sat back down at their seats with their hot chocolates)

Patrick: Midnight snack and a show, only on The Polar Express.

(Kara ducked under her seat and pulled another hot chocolate)

Toby: Who's that one for?

Kara: It's for the boy in the observation coach. I didn't want him to be left out.

Henry: Nice work.

Mr. Conductor: I concur, Let's give it to him.

13s: Yeah!

As they give the hot chocolate to the lonely kid, a breeze starts coming in from one of the windows, Kara's ticket gets caught and flies up onto the window holding mostly up top.

Arthur: Um, Murdoch?

Murdoch: Oan it. (Reach for the ticket but it flies out of the window before he could grab it) Weel, Mac gunna.

Mr. Conductor: Tickets Please, Tickets!

(Kara looks under her seat but can't find her ticket)

Kara: Where's my ticket?

Arthur: The open window got in its grasp, and it was hanging on the outside, Murdoch tried to get it for you, but the wind blew it out before he could grab it. Sorry.

Mr. Conductor: Right, Young lady, please come with me.

(Mr. Conductor and Kana went to the back of the train.)

Edward: What's going to happen now?

Henry: Search me.

Brainy kid: My guess she's going to be thrown off the train.

Arthur, Becky, & Danny: What!?

Thomas: No, no. I remember this, because we are so far away from her home, she's going to go to the front of the train and drive it.

Arthur, Becky, & Danny: Phew.

Brainy Kid: No, I'm pretty sure she's going to be thrown off.

Arthur, Becky, & Danny: (Collective gasp)

Thomas: (Sigh) Alright, here's what we'll do. Henry, James, Gordon, and Arthur will go at the back and try to meet them up on the roof, like in the film. Me, Patrick, Emily and Murdoch will use the coaches to meet Kara up at the cab, the rest of you stay here in case they get back.

Patrick: Talk about crazy ideas that just might work. Alright, let's do this thing.

13s: Yeah!

(For this, we'll focus on James' group)

James: Hey there kid, did you see where the conductor and Kara (Aka the girl that gave you the hot chocolate) went?

(The kid said nothing, just looking at the floor.)

Henry: (Sigh) No matter. Come on, we all know what to do.

(Cut to the quadrio up on the roof of the train, struggling against the strong winds.)

Gordon: Why would you get to the cab of a moving locomotive, by walking on its roof, in harsh below 0 temperatures, whilst the wind wants us to be nothing but frozen bodies on the side of the tracks. What sense does that make?

Arthur: You want to know what else makes no sense? Why are we doing that same trip?

Henry: (I have no idea sound effect)

James: I'm going to kill Thomas when… If I see him.

Arthur: You're going to what?

Hobo: I could ask you the very same question. Not really but this is quite a surprise.

(The quadrio looked in front and saw a middle-aged hobo sitting up top of the roof of the train.)

Hobo: What brings you all up here?

Gordon: We don't even know anymore.

Hobo: Ahh, youth. Come, have a cuppa Joe.

James: Um, ok?

(Henry sipped the 'cuppa' but instantly spat it back out)

Henry: Yuck! What is that stuff made out of!?

Hobo: Just my special stuff, you get used to it.

Gordon: So, what are you doing up here in the first place?

Hobo: What? Haven't seen a guy like me before? You know, you could end up like me if you let something as silly as believing in the big man in red. Go too far with it, and you'll be living out on the streets. (Grabs a Santa Hat and starts laughing seemingly mocking Jolly St Nicholas) you don't want to be bamboozled, you don't want to go down the primrose path!

Arthur: Uh, don't you mean the garden path?

Hobo: Yes, but still, my point remains. You don't wanna get caught. The worst you can do is get caught, trying to hitch a ride, Railroading! (Puts out the fire with some leftover 'special stuff', grabs his bag, and stands up) C'mon, I'll help you to the front of the train.

(Hesitantly they agreed for the hobo's help, as they were climbing up the loco, the train started going uphill. (Normally in this situation this could be a big risk of a Boiler Explosion. But with lots of water in the boiler that wasn't really a problem.) James grew tired and soon was getting carried on Henry's back. As the downhill grad began, all 4 were pulled onto some makeshift skis and start skiing down and jumping across the coaches, when the ground became level, they still kept going until they reach a tunnel, there the Hobo jumps and turns into snow and the others make a brave jump for the coal in the tender. (Say it with me now, Luckily No One Was Hurt) The quadria slid down the coal, there Kara, Thomas, and Emily in the cab driving the train.)

Gordon: So, Patrick was right. Nice to see you're safe Kara.

James: Oh, just look at me, all covered in coal dust now.

Thomas: No worries, Emily.

(Emily nodded and threw a bucket of water at the quadria, getting rid of the coal dust but leaving them soaked.)

Henry: Thomas, I'll say this now. That may be the dumbest idea you ever came up with.

Thomas: Yeah, in hindsight, that wasn't really smart, but you are close to the firebox, so at least you are warm.

Arthur: Say, where is Pat? And Murdoch too?

Emily: They're at th' front o' th' train trying tae chaynge th' headlight.

Gordon: They're What!?

(We switch to see Pat holding onto the some the handrails for dear life as the driver (engineer) and Murdoch tries to grab him to pull him to safety, whilst the fireman (Stoker) is trying to change the bulb of the headlight)

Patrick: Mother Of Mercy!

Murdoch: Haud oan Pat! A'm comin'!

(Back in the cab)

Thomas: Definitely not one of his finest moments.

Kara: Have a look at this. The red lever is the brake, and this lever is the accelerator or throttle. And this chain is the whistle. Go ahead, try it.

(James grabbed the chain and pulled and the whistles sound causing Patrick to lose grip and start flying off the train before being grabbed and pulled to safety by Murdoch and with the help of the driver, was pulled to safety.) With that the two mad their way back inside the cab)

Patrick: Who blew that bloody whistle! I would have almost been sent flying off the train if Murdoch hadn't saved me. By the way, thanks for that.

Murdoch: Na kinch.

James: Sorry about that Pat. But look, we made it, even ran into a hobo. Speaking of which, what happened to him?

Gordon: Who knows.

(Meanwhile at the front of the train. The head lamp was finally fixed just in time for the crew to realise there was something on the tracks.)

Fireman: Stop The Train! Stop The Train!

Kara: We need to stop.

Henry: You see the brakes; you know what to do.

Kara: I'm … I'm… I'm not sure. What if something goes wrong? What if we crash into something because of it, What if we… We…

Gordon: Hey, Kara. (Kneels by her side) You just do what you think is best. Ok.

Kara: Ok. (Pulls the red lever, and the train starts braking.)

Gordon: Well, done. I knew you had it in you. You just need some self-confidence.

Kara: Thank you… Uh…

Gordon: Gordon. My name is Gordon.

Kara: Ok. Gordon.

Arthur: Also, I managed to find this. (Hands Kara's ticket to her)

Kara: My ticket. (Hugs Arthur before hugging Gordon) Thank you!

Arthur: No problem.

Gordon: Yeah… What he said. (Blushes)

James: Ship! (Gordon, enraged at the comment, grabs a piece of coal and throws at James hitting him in the face) I'll pay you back for that.

(The train came to a stop and the blockage became visible.)

Driver: Caribou! (One puffed in the driver's face and a good wide shot shows that there were up to 100 Caribou.)

(The Mr. Conductor, Thomas, Patrick, Murdoch, Emily, and Kara, make their way to the front to see the blockage.)

Mr. Conductor: What in blazes?

Thomas: Talk about a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Emily: Sae, whit dae we dae?

Patrick looks at the fireman's beard and comes up with an idea remembering the film.

Patrick: Excuse me, can I pull your beard?

Fireman: Um. Sure?

(Patrick pulled on the fireman's beard and he screamed in pain, to which one of the Caribou responded. Noticing this, Mr. Conductor pulled on the Fireman's beard more. Soon all the Caribou soon started getting out of the way of the Polar Express.)

Mr. Conductor: Alright, All ahead, Slow!

Murdoch: Ye dae realize that th' phrase ye said is meant fur muckle ocean liners, richt?

Mr. Conductor: Yes. Yes, I do. I like that phrase and shall continue to say it for as long as I am a Conductor of this fine passenger service.

Murdoch: Ok, whatever rocks your rails bud.

James: Ha!

Murdoch: Clam up.

The Loco starts picking up speed, in the cab, a coder pin comes loose before falling down a drain.

James: That can't be good.

Gordon: No indeed.

(Meanwhile at the front where Mr. Conductor, Patrick, Kara, Emily, Thomas and Murdoch were at the front to make sure there were no more animals or other obstructions on the line.)

Mr. Conductor: Tell the engineer to slow down.

Kara: Slow down! Slow down!

Henry: We Can't!

Arthur: The coderpin broke, we can't slow down.

Kara: We lost the coderpin.

Mr. Conductor: They have. Oh no. Quick, everyone to the front. (Starts strapping in himself and the quindio)

Emily: Is everything a'richt?

Mr. Conductor: Well, considering the fact. The engineer has lost a coderpin and broke the throttle of the locomotive, the train is increasing speed, and we are heading towards Glacier Gulch. Which just so happens to be the steepest downhill grade in the world. I suggest that we all hold on… TIGHTLY!

(The group screamed for their lives as they went down what was basically a whole new kind of wooden roller coaster. Meanwhile in the cab, the rest were just flying around like beach balls. The coderpin showed its face and as they were trying to grab it, Arthur accidentally caught it in his mouth, and it got stuck in his throat. The train continues at its soul grabbing speed, until…)

Thomas: The lake has frozen over the tracks! We're about to dive in!

Patrick: Brace Yourselves!

(And soon the train was slipping and sliding across the frozen lake until it finally came to a stop by the fireman using his hairpin as another coderpin after Henry whacked Arthur with a shovel sending it out of the cab and onto the frozen lake causing a crack to show.)

Kara: Sweet relief.

Mr. Conductor: That's more like it.

(The group made their way to the cab.)

Mr. Conductor: What in the name of Mike!?

Murdoch: Who's Mike?

Arthur: You could have just done the Heimlich maneuver, but you just had to go for the shovel didn't you!

Henry: I was in a panic! Ok!?

Emily: Keek!

Everyone looks to where Emily is pointing to see that the frozen lake is starting to break apart.

James: Get us the blazes outta here!

Mr. Conductor: I was just about to say that.

(The Driver pulled the throttle, and the reverser caused the train to start heading backwards and turning around, they soon were going straight with Mr. Conductor telling the crew to either turn right by reversing backwards and left by accelerating forwards.)

Henry: You were right Thomas; this is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Gordon: Keep her steady!

Murdoch: A' body ben th' coach, let th' adults handle this.

(The group started making their way to the first coach, until Arthur looked out the horizon and saw something)

Arthur: Look! Tracks, dead ahead!

Patrick: Inside! Now!

(Grabs Arthur by the hair and drags him inside the coach with the others. Without any other words they head for the nearest seats and hold on for dear life.)

(The icy cavalcade continues with the teenagers inside the front coach seeing the water starting to rush to the windows until finally the Polar Express grips the rails and escapes from its near death.)

Thomas: Phew! Everyone alright?

Mr. Conductor: I was just about to ask the same thing.

Patrick: Yeah, we're cool.

James: Aside from nearly seeing the big man upstairs, that was the craziest thing I have ever been a part of.

Gordon: Same.

Kara: And I must thank you for being concerned about my wellbeing. And for finding my ticket.

Henry: You are a nice one Kara, a real keeper. Now let's head back to our seats, I'm sure our friends and yours are very worried for us considering what just happened.

Mr. Conductor: I couldn't agree more. Follow me, we'll take a much safer path.

(Mr. Conductor takes the teens through the coaches, on their way back, they pass through a strange coach full of old toys.)

Emily: Ah wis aff tae ask aboot this. Whit's it?

Mr. Conductor: This is where all gifts of children that stop believing go. A tragic sight, this whole car is something the boss is trying out, they get recycled and turned into something the next child would want. Watch your step, come on.

(As they travel through the coach one of the puppets who looks like Ebenezer Scrooge starts moving seemingly on his own. It taps Gordon, James, Henry, and Arthur on the back.)

Scrooge Puppet: You are just like me dear friends. SCROOGES! Ebenezer Scrooge. 3 spirits, Jacob Marley, Humbug! (Starts laughing)

(One glance up and the quadrio see that the puppet is being puppeteered by the Hobo from before.)

Scrooge Puppet: You know what you are, you are doubters!

(Scared by this the quadrio rushed for the door and entered inside the main passenger coach.)

Toby: There you four are, we were very worried for you.

Henry: We figured. (Looks to Kara who was being hugged by Dan and Becky.) Well at least she is happy. Where is everyone else?

Toby: Inside the observation coach with the quiet kid. His name is Billy, by the way.

Becky: Why don't we go as well, just so he doesn't feel lonely.

Gordon: Capital idea Becky. C'mon.

The group met up with the rest, James tried to talk but was shut up by Edward, Percy pointed to Billy who was out on the observation deck. Patrick, taking initiative, cranked the handle on his Musical-O-Matic 4200.

Billy: La, La, La, La, La, La, La

La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La!

I'm wishing on a star

And trying to believe

That even though it's far

He'll find me Christmas Eve

I guess that Santa's busy

Cause he's never come around

I think of him

When Christmas comes to town!

Thomas: The best time of the year

Edward: When everyone comes home

Henry: With all this Christmas cheer

Gordon: It's hard to be alone

James: Putting up the Christmas tree

Percy: With friends who come around

Toby: It's so much fun

Main 7: When Christmas comes to town!

Duck: Presents for the children

Donald: Wrapped in rid & green

Douglas: A' th' hings ah heard aboot

Billy: Why are you singing with me?

Donald: Padruig.

Douglas: Bit it doesn't maiter, ye shuid ken yer ne'er alone while thae times.

Billy: You lot are weird.

James: Maybe, but sometimes… It's just nice to be weird. It's where you can truly be yourself.

Kana: Presents for the children

Becky: Wrapped in red and green

Danny: All the things I've heard about

Billy: And never really seen

Everyone: No one will be sleeping on the night of Christmas Eve

Hoping Santa's on his way!

Murdoch: Whin Santa's sleigh bells ring

Billy: I listen all around

Patrick: The Herald Angels sing

Arthur: I never hear a sound

Kara, Becky, Danny, & Patrick: And all the dreams of children

Gordon, James, Henry, Arthur, & Billy: Once lost will all be found

13s: That's all I want,

When Christmas comes to town!

Everyone: That's all I want,

When Christmas comes to town!

Mr. Conductor: Nice singing.

Thomas: Thanks.

Mr. Conductor: Say, can I see that little device you got there?

Patrick: Um, sure. (Hands Mr. Conductor the Musical-O-Matic 4200)

Mr. Conductor: Fascinating. Did you make this yourself?

Patrick: Um, no. It was made by a friend of ours, Whiff Worsdell.

Mr. Conductor: Duly noted. (Hands the Musical-O-Matic 4200 to Patrick)

If You Want to Join Us on a Ride

Mr. Conductor: Ah, look. The lights. (Everyone looked up and saw the northern lights.) Nothing better than looking at Aurora Borealis on a clear starry moonlit night. Gazing out upon the frozen tundra and finding a place of interest. (Points to a small town.) There… is the North Pole.

Henry: Wait. Holy cow! We're almost there!

(Patrick, again seizing the opportunity, turns the crank on the Musical-O-Matic 4200. Hold on to your night caps, a brand-new musical number. And this one is a doozy.)

Mr. Conductor: All Aboard! All Aboard! Tickets please. Tickets. Well, you coming?

Children: It's a magic carpet on the rails

Mr. Conductor: Never take a rest.

Children: Flying through the mountains and the snow

Mr. Conductor: You can ride for free.

Children: And join the fun, if you just say yes

Cause that's the way things happen on the Polar Express

Mr. Conductor: You bet.

Children: Woo, Woo, the whistle blows

Mr. Conductor: That's the sound of her singing.

Children: Ding, Ding, Ding, the bell will ring…

Mr. Conductor: Golly look at her go!

Children: If you are wondering if you'll get there soon

Anybody's guess

Mr. Conductor: Cause that's the way things happen on the Polar Express.

Children: When we get there, we'll say

Everyone: Yeah!

Children: We'll arrive with a…

Mr. Conductor: Bang, Bang, Bang.

Children: Boom, Boom, Boom. Laughing all the way.

Thomas: It's a choo choo with a stunning view that rivals all the best.

Mr. Conductor: But you will never see it advertised.

Gordon: It's a simple fact. We stay on track. Though sometimes we digress.

Arthur: But that can only happen on the Polar Express.

Children: Hiss, Hiss, the steam it hisses

Mr. Conductor: That's the sound of her breathing.

Children: Clang, Clang, the boiler rang

What a wonderful show

With a comfy seat.

Henry: And lots to eat.

Children: Boy is this the best, wish it would never have to end

Everyone: With a little luck We'll be on time, there is no need to stress

Cause that's the way things happen on the Polar Express

Mr. Conductor: Lights are gleaming far across the snow.

Toby: You're not dreaming, may I present.

The North Pole!

Oliver: If it's penguins you expect to view, you surely haven't guessed.

Duck: They all down the other end.

Everyone: With a little luck, we'll be on time. There's no need to stress.

Cause that's the way things happen on the Polar Express

Children: Woo, Woo, the whistle blows

Mr. Conductor: That's the sound of her singing.

Children: Ding, Ding, the bell will ring

Golly look at her go

If you want to join us, come along

Mr. Conductor: I'll check my manifest.

Children: Cause that's the way things happen on the Polar Express

Patrick: I knew it was a good idea to use it again.

Donald: Aye, whit urr ye lads excited tae see maist?

Everyone (Minus Gordon, Henry, James, Billy, & Arthur): SANTA!

Douglas: Thought as muckle. Whit aboot ye 5?

Billy: Can we get back to you on that?

Emily: A'richt.

Children: When we get there, we'll say

Everyone: Yeah!

Children: We'll arrive with a...

Mr. Conductor: Bang, Bang, Bang.

Children: Boom, Boom Boom. Laughing all the way.

If you want to join us, come along

Mr. Conductor: You can be our guest.

Children: Cause that's the way thing happen on the

Everyone: Roller

Coaster

The Polar

Express!

Mr. Conductor: Next stop is the North Pole! Next stop is the North Pole. Ah, ah, ah, that is not a toy young man. Young man that is not a toy. Take your seats please. Take your seats.

Thomas: Um, anybody drawing a blank about what we are supposed to do at the North Pole?

James: You too huh?

Mr. Conductor: I can answer that. The man in red is to give out the first gift of Christmas.

Edward: Oh, I remember that.

Danny: Um? Then what? Who does he give it to?

Duck: Don't you remember the film?

Danny: I have yet to actually see it. And I've never been that invested in Christmas. Kind of the reason why me and my friends are here.

Toby: Real Shame, It's a modern classic. You'll love it. And the book it was based on too.

Mr. Conductor: To answer your previous question. He will choose… one of you.

Douglas: Bucket list moment! Richt thare!

Emily: Dae ye think he wull wale yin o' us?

Edward: Wouldn't surprise me if he did. Considering all the work we did on this journey.

Henry: Um, Question? Where are the elves?

Becky: Look!

Danny: Elves!

Donald: Fun thaim.

The children looked out to the street and saw hundreds of elves moving to the center of town.

James: Why is one of them moving without moving his whole body?

Gordon: I thought we agreed to not point out Animation Errors.

Kara: Huh?

Gordon: Nothing.

(Soon the train finally took a stop at its final destination. Everyone hopped off the train and got into two lines.) (Or columns.)

Mr. Conductor: Made it. And only 5 minutes to midnight.

Brainy Kid: Hey, what gives? It was 5 minutes to midnight 4 minutes ago.

Mr. Conductor: Exactly! Columns of two!

Thomas: Wait, chaps. What about Billy?

Toby: Oh right. C'mon.

(The group makes their way to the observation coach and as they are climbing in, James accidentally steps on a handle that unknowingly uncouples the coach from the rest of the train, they head over to Billy who was still looking at the floor.)

Kara: Look, you have to come with us.

Oliver: She's right.

Billy: Christmas just doesn't work out for me. Never has.

Percy: But Christmas is such a wonderful, beautiful time.

Danny: It's a time for giving and being thankful, for friends and family.

Becky: People hang decorations and lights. Santa leaves presents under our Christmas trees.

Billy: Christmas just… doesn't work out for me.

Henry: Look, I don't know if Christmas is gonna work out for you or not...

James: ...but this is Christmas Eve. Don't stay here by yourself.

Gordon: Yes, come with us.

Emily: We'll gang th'gither.

13s: Yeah!

(Then there was a rumble, and the coach shook, Murdoch looked out the window to see what was happening.)

Murdoch: Hauld yer horses, how come ur we movin`?

James: Um… I may or may not have accidentally uncoupled the coach by mistake whilst trying to get in.

Kara: What!?

James: I thought that might have been the case, but I was too focused on checking on this boy here to properly check.

Patrick: Ok, but I think we should be alright.

(Then the coach runs over a set of automatic points switching them to another track going on a downhill gradient.)

Patrick: Maybe NOT!

(And the group of 17 start holding on for dear life. Murdoch grabs Arthur, Percy and Toby, Donald grabs Pat, Thomas, and Emily, And Douglas grabs Kara & her friends.)

(Gordon heads to the back and tries to think of a way to stop the coach before something bad could happen, when a familiar face grabs his attention.)

Hobo: Hey Kid. How about a nice cuppa joe. (Starts drinking his cuppa before being turned to snow upon hitting the top of a tunnel leaving nothing behind but his cup.)

Gordon: I got it! Arthur! Henry! James! Come and help me.

Arthur: Right, C'mon chaps.

And the four together started turning a red wheel on the side of the coach. First, things were dark… Then shines of oranges showed as the brakes were applied and sparks from the wheels started appearing, the coach continued to slowly come to a stop before the coach hit a set of buffers on what seemed like a turntable. The force of the impact sent the four back inside the coach as it started spinning on the turntable seemingly on its own until finally the spinning died down and the train had come to a complete stop.

You Can Be Our Guest

Thomas: Everyone ok?

Everyone else: Yeah!

Toby: Say, shouldn't we have been flung the other way by the centrifugal force of the impact?

Percy: I think we should have, but let's be thankful that we didn't.

Patrick: Ok, now our next course of action is to try and find a way out whatever this place is and meet back up with the other kids.

Oliver: So, which way now?

Kara: Wait a sec. Ssh. Listen here.

(The group listens closely and then starts to hear music coming from the tunnel Kara is pointing at.)

Gordon: That looks like our best bet right there.

Donald: At least tis something.

Douglas: Bit tae reach that point we…

Emily: Hae tae dae something gey risky.

The group looked down at the bottomless abyss below them. (Collective Gulp)

(First, things were silent…

Until…)

Becky: Well, if anyone won't do it first, then I suppose I'll do it.

Toby: Say what?

And before anybody could say anything else, Becky started tightrope walking across one of the rails trying to make it to the other side.

Gordon: What are you doing!?

Becky: What does it look like?

Thomas: I mean, she has a point. What else are we going to do if we don't try and find a way out ourselves and all this maybe our only shot of getting out of here.

Emily: Ye see that drap? thare is na wey A'm crossing that.

Edward: Indeed, it's better if we stay here. Soon enough someone will come down here and get us out of here.

Percy: But do you feel how cold it is here, I'd rather go to somewhere that has warmth than freezing my butt off here.

Toby: But… But… Grr!

Percy: Just leave it Toby.

Thomas: We are doing this whenever you want to or not.

James: Right, time to become those tightrope people at the circus.

Henry: You should already know how it feels to be one of them. Huh Toby?

Gordon: (Chuckles)

Toby: It was one time. ONE TIME!

Kara: Enough talking. Let's go!

(And so, one at a time, our merry band of characters carefully go across the rails. They continued until Danny, Emily, Toby, & Edward were left.)

Gordon: C'mon you four. We're so close now.

Toby: I still don't think this is a bad idea.

Emily: Whit if we fall?

Danny: This whole thing is very scary. I can't do it!

Becky: You can do it Danny. Remember when Buster bullied all of us & you found it in you to stand up for Mr. Conductor.

Danny: Yeah… I do.

Duck: Edward! Toby! If you can stand up to Spencer's nonsense and lend help to all of us. Then surely you can trust all of us. Some of your closest friends?

Edward and Toby look at each other looking for the words to say.

Thomas: Don't worry Emily. I'll still be there for you like I promised your father. You'll be ok. I promise.

Oliver: So, what will it be mates? The choice is yours.

Danny, Edward, Toby, & Emily thought long and hard. There was a long silence…

Until…

Danny: Right! We're coming!

And as the four youngins crossed the rail carefully Duck and Oliver led a chorus of "C'mon"s and "You can do it"s. Until finally they made it to the other side.

Patrick: I knew you had it in you.

Toby: Thanks. But let's not do that again.

Percy: Um… Toby?

Toby: What? (Then saw the next couple of areas they had to get to before they reached the tunnel.) SON OF A-

(The scene switches to them going through the tunnel, with only the light at the end guiding their way. They were cold and tired, but they soon made it to the end. They heard footsteps coming and all hid and saw some elves come in and look at some giant screens.)

Elf 1: Just finished the last one.

Elf 2: How's it wrapped?

Elf 3: It's wrapped in candy-striped red with a number-seven holly-green bow.

Elf 1: A number-seven bow? When we're this close to liftoff? What are they thinking down there? Are they meshuggeners? What's the routing?

Elf 3: Going to the States. Then making a stop at Sodor before the UK. Ending at Ffarquhar.

Thomas: That's our home.

Patrick: We got that matey.

(Horn Sounds)

Elf 3: We got a troublemaker now. Just what we need.

Elf 1: Things aren't bad enough. What's his?

Elf 2: Apparently, some kid from Maplewood, New Jersey… stuck some gum in his sister's hair.

Elf 1: New Jersey? Is that the same kid that put the tack… underneath his teacher's chair last year?

Elf 2: No, sir. This kid's name is Steven.

Elf 1: Steven.

Elf 3: So, what do we do, chief?

Elf 2: Alert the big man?

Elf 3: We are talking about getting nothing for Christmas here.

The screen shows a scene of Steven talking to his mother about the accusations.

I didn't do it. (x3)

Elf 1: Look, it's… It's almost Christmas, huh? We'll cut the kid a break. But put him on the check-twice list for next year.

(Bells start going off but Gordon, James, Henry, and Arthur don't hear it, I think you know why.)

Elf 3: All right, boys.

Elf 1: Let's shut it down. That's it for this year. Come on.

Elf 2: Hey, are we taking the pneumatic?

Elf 3: Of course we're taking the pneumatic.

Elf 1: It's the only way to get to the square on time.

Elf 3: Let's go.

Elf 1: And time is money.

Elf 2: Ready, and mount.

Elf 3: Good. Close.

(And the elves enter some tube device and with a flash they are gone.)

Edward: Ok, let's get a couple of them and we should be on our way.

Henry: But I can see only one left.

(Everyone looked at each other before transitioning to where everyone was squished in the tube device in a very uncomfortable way.)

James: (muffled) Let's just get this other with.

And with the push of a button the doors closed and the tube thing went at a crazy speed, turning into roller coaster part 3. Until they stopped and everyone popped out of the thing and landed on the floor.

Duck: Let's never do that again.

They looked at the room, it was full of conveyor belts as far as the eyes can see, without anything else to do they all started hopping across the other belts. It was great fun, until they stopped as a present started being taken down the main belt.

Donald: That the noo says it goes tae some laddie cried Billean.

Billy: My name is Billy.

James: My name's Jeff. (Gets punched in the shoulder by Percy) Oh come on, you knew it was coming.

Douglas: Aff tae 11344 Edbrooke Avenue

Billy: That's my address.

Out of curiosity, Billy follows his present before following it through some flaps at the end of the belt.

Thomas: Wait! Billy Come Back!

Patrick: Well you only live once! C'mon!

And one by one everyone followed Billy and soon were going on the slide of their lifetime. After they reach the bottom the group landed on a huge pile of presents.

Toby: Ok, that was actually pretty fun going down that slide.

Percy: Can we go again?

13s: (Laugh)

Suddenly machines started whirring, and some sort of drape started to be pulled up the side of the pile.

Edward: We're on a pile with all the presents, about to be loaded into Santa's sleigh.

The wise blue student was correct. Once the bag had been tightened, the sack was lifted by an air zeppelin, ready to be taken to Santa's reindeer pulled sleigh. The group climbed their way underneath all the excess present with the sack tightening. And the sight of the tree in the main square with up to 1000 or more elves all there and waiting was a breathtaking sight. Just as that moment something started to pull Billy down. Donald and Douglas managed to keep on their level, but also brought along an unexpected surprise.

Brainy Kid: Ugh, Phew.

13s: You?

Kara: What are you doing here?

Brainy Kid: Same as you, I wanted to see about my presents.

James: I'll have you know that wasn't our intention, At least not for all of us at first. I accidentally uncoupled that last coach, which took us unwillingly down into the big man's workshop and we had to do lots of stuff to try and meet back up the rest of the group.

Brainy Kid: Whatever.

Patrick: Oh yeah. I was meaning to ask you. What was your name? I don't think you ever told us.

Brainy Kid: Oh. Well… My name is Rupert. Rupert Biddaboy.

Patrick: Ah, well it's nice to properly meet your acquaintance Rupert.

Danny: Incoming.

Patrick: Huh?

The group looked down and saw that the bag was very close to the star at the top of the tree; they weren't high enough to pass it. With one bump the star started to fall to the ground, almost instantaneously several elves started bungee jumping after the star. Seemingly falling faster than the star itself, which proved to be right as they managed to grab the star before it hit the ground and put it back on the tree just in the nick of time. Once the bag was placed on the sleigh, Two elves came up to help the group out of the bag.

Elf 2: Alright kids. Party's over.

Everyone: Yes Sir.

Billy hesitates to give his present to the elf but soon relents.

Elf 3: I promise, I'll take good care of it.

After meeting up with the rest of the kids, the celebration began. As trumpets blew, some elves brought on the nine famous reindeer, two elves followed behind with the reindeer bells on their tassels, they jingle them for everyone to hear, but four of them couldn't hear them.

Patrick: Ha! Now that is a beautiful sound.

James: You guys hear anything?

Gordon: No unfortunately.

Henry: Chaps, I'm strongly considering giving in to all of this believing thing.

Arthur: Glad to know that I'm not the only one thinking of that.

Then finally the jolly fat man himself makes his presence but the quadrio couldn't see him because of many elves getting onto others shoulders to get a good shot of him.

Gordon: Ok I will admit, this is the one time I actually wanted to see the man in red.

James: We just need something to finally push us over the edge.

As of by calling, four of the bells fell from the tassels and landed by James feet. Gordon, Henry, James, and Arthur grabbed one, looked at each other and said…

Gordon, James, Henry, & Arthur: I Believe!

And with that, the bells' sound became clear and the four looked up to see Santa Claus himself looking at them.

Santa: Let's have these four right here.

The group cheered for their friends as they went to Santa's sleigh.

Santa: So my boys, What would you like for Christmas?

Gordon, James, Henry, & Arthur: (whispering) We'd like the bells that fell off the reindeer.

Santa: Hmm. I see. (Pats their heads, grabs the bells, and holds them up for all to see) The First Gifts Of Christmas!

(Cheering)

The four headed back to the group but the group unknowingly lost their bells because of holes in the pockets of their nightgowns. But there's no time for that. After Santa's sleigh left the North Pole, The elves started to celebrate. A band started setting up and Pat and the others came onto the stage and using the Musical-O-Matic 4200 started having a ball.

Elf Band: One, two, One, two, three, four

Thomas: Rockin' on top of the world

Patrick: Rockin' on top of the world

Elf Band Leader: Big hand to these wonderful kids.

(Cheers)

Patrick: Do you think we can have one more music number before we go?

Elf Band Guitarist: I don't see why not.

Elf Band Bassist: You all have the floor.

Elf Band Drummer: Have fun.

Emily: Thanks. We won't disappoint.

Thomas, Percy, & Toby: It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraid

Edward: At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade

Kara: And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy

James: Throw your arms around the world at Christmas time

Becky: But say a prayer and pray for the other ones

Emily: At yule time tis solid bit while yer havin` fin!

Oliver: There's a world outside your window and it's a world of dread and fear

Duck: Where a kiss of love can kill you

Becky: Where there's death in every tear

Gordon: And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging chimes of doom

Patrick: Well, tonight we're reaching out and touching you

Henry: Bring peace and joy this Christmas to throughout the world

Kara: A song of hope where there's no hope tonight

Emily: Why is comfort to be feared, why is to touch to be scared?

Donald: Howfur kin thay ken tis yule time at a'?

Everyone: Here's to you

Douglas: Raise a tumbler tae a' body

Everyone: Here's to them

Percy: And all there is to come

Kara: Can they know it's Christmas time at all?

Everyone: Heal the world
