[Car sputtering]

Merry christmas to me.
You broke your truck again.

This is going to cost you.

Do you have
a loaner I can borrow?

I have to deliver those packages
tonight or else!

Oh sure!

I have a sleigh with reindeer
out back.

What do I look like,
santa claus?

Can you
fix it tonight?

You want me to work
on christmas eve?

Cost you double!
Cash only!

But I won't get paid until
I finish the deliveries!

I'll lose my job!

Dad,
what's happening?

How is this
my problem?

If you can't pay
then go away!

We're closed!

My truck!

Come back
after christmas.

With cash!

What about our tree?

We have to find
your mother.

I have an idea!

Laura's dad should ask santa
for a new truck.

Uh, junior, I'm not sure
you realize how this works.

No,
he's got it right.

We have to be good;
santa brings us stuff.

It's the circle
of christmas, bob.

Let me ask
you this first.

What's christmas
about?

Santa!

Family!

Presents!

Big turkeys, juicy hams,
and sweet potatoes

With those little marshmallows
on top. Haha.

I haven't
had dinner, yet.

[Ahem...]

Oh! Baby jesus!

Wait a minute.

What does santa have to do
with baby jesus?

Now, that's
a great question!

Let's find out!

Do you know what
santa's real name is?

Santa's real name?

I'll give you a hint.

"Up on the housetop,
click, click, click.

Down through the
chimney comes..."

Old saint nick!

Or try this one...

"The stockings were hung
by the chimney with care,

In hopes that..."

"Saint nicholas
soon would be there!"

Right again!

So, who's
this saint nicholas?

That's santa's
real name!

Bob,
a little heads up.

Santa's real name
is santa.

It's fairly
self explanatory.

It looks like I need
to tell you all the story

Of saint nicholas...

Caught a lot of fish,
captain?

Your father
will be pleased!

He and I are gonna catch even
more when we go fishin' today!

I bet you will!

Who's that?

That's young
saint nicholas.

Wait,
that's santa claus?

It can't be.

We're nowhere near
the north pole.

Ooh, does he
go on an adventure?

Does he get swept out to sea
while trying to save an elf?

"Hold on,
little elf!

"I'll save you!

Grab hold
of my sleigh!"

Are you done?

Just trying to move
the plot along, bob.

[Bob] nicholas grew up here,

With two parents
who loved him very much.

He had no need that went unmet,
and he was happy.

Nicholas?
It's time for church!

Dad and I
are gonna go fishin'!

As soon
as church is over.

Oh - alright.

Does he live
in a church?

In the third century,
most people worshipped in homes.

Did they also have christmas
in the summer?

Because it doesn't feel
very festive around here.

Well - it's not
christmas time yet.

I mean,
a wreath or something!

[Ding!]

Huh?!

I'm telling you!

I said it
and it was there!

Of course it was.

It's our story -
and we're telling it.

Ooooooh.

Now, quiet.
They're praying.

...please comfort him
in this trying time

And heal him from
his sickness... Amen.

And now let us sing.

Hey nicky boy!

Sneaking out
before the party?

This could go on
for hours!

And don't
call me nicky boy.

I think it's nice,
nickelstick.

Your parents are always
thinking of others.

Always giving.

I guess.
I'll be outside.

Or, you could help me
give away -

- All this fish.

♪ Sing we with heart and voice,

Friends, may god's blessing

And also with you.

And now...
Who's hungry?

[Cheering]

I made baklava!
Who needs a honey rush?!

So, how 'bout those
olympics, heh?

You're wasting away!
Here!

More fish!

Whoooooa!
[Crash]

Octavius, next time,
hold the anchovies...

[Laughter]

Let's see. Shovel, rake,
hoe, hoe, hoe...

Oh, fishing poles!
There they are!

Blessings to you!

Blessings be
with you all.

Time for fishin'?

Time for fishin'!

Not very christmasy,
bob.

Shh. This conversation
is important.

Needs lights.
Twinkling lights.

[Ding!]

You know, jesus said we are
"fishers of men."

I told your captain we'd catch
more fish than he did today!

Nicholas,
are you listening to me?

What? Sure.

You said something
about fishing.

Nicholas this
is important.

We are called to be god's
hands and feet on this earth.

Nicholas. Are you
listening to me?

Wow! Get a load
of that.

Looks like gustav's got himself
a fresh batch of workers...

I feel sorry for 'em.

Why?

Gustav loves nothing
but money--

He finds folks who run out
of money and out of hope

Then he works them
to the bone.

You there!

Pick up those oars!
Clean this place up!

Yes.
Mr. Gustav sir

Daddy!

[Ack!]

[Ooops! Ooooh!]

Oh no.

You're fired.

B-b-b-but how will
I feed my family?

Get off my ship.
You fool!

Get out
of my sight!

Get off
my ship!

And make sure you don't
take no fish with you!

Are you all right?

Oh no,
it's all right girls.

It's okay.

Good man -
if it's food you need,

Just knock on my door
and ask for octavius.

He'll see that you
don't leave hungry.

Thank you,
kind sir!

My family
is in your debt.

Take his charity while
you can get it, little man!

What are you
lookin at?

Dad, if we keep
giving away our fish,

Will I end up
working for gustav?

God has blessed our
family with much,

But everything
we have belongs to him.

He wants us to use what
we have to help others,

Not to keep it
for ourselves.

Are you listening
to me?

And realizing that
all the young children

Of the world deserved
a better life,

St. Nick resolved
to gain weight,

Grow a beard,
and teach reindeer to fly.

Not quite.

Just testing you.

You can't teach
reindeer to fly.

They gotta eat
magic corn.

[Bob] as unfair as it seems,
this is the world

Where young nicholas
found himself.

Where are they going?

Oh!!! Great piles
of codfish!

You scared me,
knickknack!

Don't call
me knickknack.

The woman's husband
is sick.

They're going to help.

It seems everyone's
getting sick these days...

They should stay home.

What if they
get sick?

You know
your parents...

Wherever there's a need -
they'll be there!

Now get to sleep,
you little halibut.

Don't call
me halibut.

Nickerdoodle?

No.

Nick junior?

Please don't.

Nickybopper?

Make it stop.

Okay, nicholas.
Back to bed.

So, anybody up
for some hot cocoa?

Is that the end?

It's kind of
a european ending.

We're left with more questions
than answers.

That's not the end
of the story...

We're just
coming up to the...

Sad part.

The sad part?

What happens?

Is this the part where
they don't let rudolf play

In any of their
reindeer games?

That's so insensitive.

No...it's about
nick's parents.

Why would nick's parents
want to play reindeer games?

Not that,
larry.

Something happened
to nick's parents.

What?

Well, they did get sick
and they...

They what, bob?

Well...

What happened to nick's
parents, bob?

Well, a great sickness came
through their town--they...

Bob?

...they died.

While nicholas was still
a boy, both of his parents died.

He still had plenty of food
and a nice house to live in.

But he was an orphan -
a boy with no parents.

Oh, nicholas,
I am so sorry.

What am I going
to do now?

[Knock on the door]

You could
answer the door.

Hello nicholas.

What do you want?

There's no need to be rude,
nicholas,

I'm here to help you.

Won't you excuse us.

I have some business
with the boy.

Fine,
don't mind me!

I'll just be sitting
at the dock...

Of the bay...

Wasting time.

I suppose you know
you have to run

Your father's fishing business
now, nicholas.

That's a big job.

What do you mean?

I was just thinking
about all those poor, sick,

Hungry people your parents
were always helping.

What about them?

Well, with your parents gone,
who will help them?

It's going to take a lot
of money and a lot of fish.

Please help my family.

Sure, i, uh, I guess
I could give you some.

How can you help anyone if you
give everything you have away?

Please sir...

Your parents
were always so generous.

You better find
these folks some fish!

I don't
have anymore!

[Townspeople murmuring]

I have to get
out of here!

Hey nicholas!
Where are you going?!

I can't stay here, octavius -
I'm leaving greece.

But greece
is the word!

Weigh anchor, captain!
We're leaving!

You can't do this!

Is it because
of the nicknames?

Don't call
me nicknames!

No..."Nicknames"
is not a nickname.

I'm leaving.
I have to go.

I'll come with you!

No, octavius.

You'll only remind me
of my parents.

So where are we going?

I don't know.
Anywhere but here!

Alright fellows,
you heard the man...

Goodbye, nicholas.

I sure hope you find
what you're looking for.

This story
isn't very christmasy.

That's because the ship
hasn't landed

On peppermint island yet!

Inhabited by herbie,
the yodeling elf.

There's no such thing,
larry.

They're sailing
to the north pole, right bob?

They don't
meet elves

And they don't sail
to the north pole.

South pole?

No.

Winter wonderland?

Nope.

Toys-r-us?

The happy young boy
who had needed nothing

Now found himself with
a great big hole in his heart.

Nick and the crew
spent several years

Sailing the mediterranean...

Looking for something

That would make him feel
happy again.

Until finally, right around
the end of the year,

They came to a place
called "the holy land" -

The place where
jesus was born.

Nicolas remembered his father
always talking about jesus,

So he decided to go
check it out for himself.

Alright!
Now we're talking.

It's finally feeling
christmas-y!

[Bob] sister clair explained to
nick how christmas is the time

When jesus came near to us

So that he could show everyone
how much he loved them.

So that's why
I give to the poor, nicholas,

I'm so happy about
the gift god gave me!

...and that's why
my parents gave, too.

[Bob] nicholas realized
he wasn't alone,

And he didn't feel like
an orphan any more.

He believed that god
sent jesus for him,

Because god
loved him so much.

And he wanted to share that
love by helping others in need.

Suddenly, nicholas knew
what he needed to do.

It was time
to go home.

God loves you,
go in peace.

Okay,
I'm ready, too.

Check out this sea of galilee
muffin pan!

You don't bake.

Yet.
I don't bake - yet.

[Narrator] this has been
helpful humanitarian songs

With mr. Lunt.

Tune in next time to hear
mr. Lunt say...

Don't give donuts
to dogs!

Thank your for your
devoted service, captain.

It's good
to be home.

You're welcome,
young nicholas.

It's good
to be home.

[Gasp!]

Gustav's!

Gustav's!

Gustav's!

Gustav's!

Shh! Don't tell anyone
I gave this to you.

Oh, no ma'am. I won't!
Thank you.

You're welcome.

All tremble before the great
and mighty mayor gustav.

Mayor gustav?

Now therefore i,
mayor gustav,

Do hereby decree that no citizen
shall give from one to another

A gift of any kind
or any value.

Anyone caught in violation
of this decree

Shall be subject to a fine
of one gold coin,

And if they cannot pay they
will be put in jail...forever.

[Crowd murmuring]

This is going to make it
hard for me to help others.

Octavius!
I'm home!

That's great.

Who are you?

h*, h*, h*!
That's a good one!

Get back!
I know how to use this!

It's good to see you,
my old friend.

This would be a lot more tender
if I knew who you were.

It's me,
nicholas!

[Wack!]

That's for
not writing!

Octavius,
there's so much to tell you.

But that can wait.

[Wack!]

That's for
not calling!

I came home to continue
my parent's work!

You see, we don't give to others
because it makes us happy -

We give to others
because we are happy.

Because jesus
first loved us!

That rings a bell.

That's what I learned
when I was away!

Well good luck
helping people now.

Mayor gustav is making it hard
to do all sorts of good things.

I heard!

But I believe god will show me
how I can help others,

Even when it's
not easy.

I think I have something
that could help.

I've saved it for you.

It belonged
to your father.

It's a quote from jesus, from
the sixth chapter of matthew...

"But when you give
to the needy,

"Do not let
your left hand know

"What your
right hand is doing,

So that your giving
may be in secret."

You know, nicholas.

What most people
saw from your father

Was only the tip
of the iceberg.

What's an iceberg?

I have no idea.

The point is, he helped people
in so many ways -

Most of which
no one knew about.

This is the answer to all
of our problems, octavius!

From now on,
we help people in secret!

Righto.

[Wack!]

That's for not bringing me
back a souvenir.

Here's a muffin pan.

Ooo! The sea of galilee!
Delicious!

Ow, you didn't tell me
fish had teeth!

I know those girls,
always giving things away.

How are people like me supposed
to make an honest living

When people are always
giving things away.

But no more!

We just.. Have to be...
Patient.

Wait a minute...
What's this?

Aha!

This business is in violation
of decree 823602-11.20,

No giving gifts.

Each one of you has three days
to pay the fine

Or all three of you
will go to jail.

But, we don't
have any money to pay.

Maybe if you spent
more time working

And less giving things away
you wouldn't have that problem!

Three days!

Nicholas?
Is that you?

Put on some weight
during your travels?

Maybe a little.
How's business?

Fine.

As long as you're
not back in

The giving fish
away for free business.

I'm the mayor now,
you know.

Uhhh huh...

Ah...
What's this!

That's the third mackerel
I've found out here today!

Who's got the slippy
fishy fingers?

Who is dropping
my fish on my floor?

You dropping my fish?

That was way
too close!

Did you see how gustav
looked at me?

There's got to be some better
way of giving things in secret.

I have to help
those girls!

You could hide your
real identity.

There's got to be
something I can wear

To hide my
real identity.

Maybe make some sort
of a disguise...

Maybe some sort
of disguise.

Like this! Or this!
Or maybe this!

Who did this?

I gotta find
a new costume.

Nicholas,

Someone saved
my daughter!

Now she won't have to go
to jail!

Tha...
That's wonderful news.

I need to find and thank
the person responsible!

What? Why?

He's saved my daughter!
I have to thank him!

Be careful
with that tuna!

They don't grow on trees,
because if they did -

That would be
one stinky tree!

Well, ha ha!
Good luck finding him!

Could have
been anybody.

Oh gustav!
There you are!

One gold coin.
For my daughter.

Ooooh!

You may have
saved one,

But you still need a coin
for the other two.

And, they won't
be so lucky!

What makes you
so sure?

I'm posting guards around
the old man's house tonight,

To catch
this secret giver.

I will not
be made a fool!

Ughhhh...

Oh,

Don't say
a thing!

Show yourself,

We'll meet back
at the house.

What if I get caught?

Know that it will be
for a good cause.

Why does that
not make me feel better?

Oh, no!
The place is surrounded!

I had better run for it!
Ooooh!

Ahem!

I said,
I had better run for it!

Oh-h*-oh-oh.

Tonight the house

By the whole
roman army!

If he wants to succeed,
he had better fall from the sky!

Hey, I kind of like
that outfit.

Yeah, me too.
It fits.

The others
were so constricting.

The little guy
looks like an elf!

Is this how
it all started?

Is there going
to be snow?

I'd love for there
to be snow!

No, larry, there's not
going to be any sn -

Imagination!
Love it!

Snow or no snow,
no one here is moving

Until we catch
this mysterious giver!

Do not worry
my sweet.

Whatever angel god has sent
to help us will not fail.

Hey, bob, can the youngest
girl's stocking be red?

Huh? Can it?

No, larry,
her stocking can't be -

Why do I even bother?

What are you doing?

Wait for it...

[Ding!]

Now it's beginning to look
a lot like christmas!

Men, be on the alert!

We're dealing with
a professional!

Oh no!

Now what are we
going to do?

There's got to be
a way...

The chimney!

You have got to be
kidding me.

Aha!

Over here!
They went this way!

He seems to know
our every move!

You don't think this snow
has anything to do with it,

Do you?

Oops.

Your imagination
is not helping.

But it's so festive!

Split up!

There you are!

There they are!

Oh. My bad.

To the rooftops!

And that is how
santa got his laugh.

Uh - larry...

Hold on,
bob.

Just moving
the story forward.

I think the story is about
to move us forward!

Watch out!

Aaaaah...

Aaaaah...
Uh, owwww!

They're getting away!

Ahhhhh...
Stop this thing.

Would this be a bad time
to talk about my christmas list?

Aaaaah...

Watch out!

Watch out!

Giving sure
is dangerous!

And thrilling!

Ahhh...quick!

Aaaaah...

A flying sleigh
with six tiny reindeer?

I gotta go lay down.

Thank goodness
for snow.

You hear that,
bob?

Thank goodness
for snow.

You roll your dice,
you move your mice...

Nobody gets hurt.

I beg of you,

Let me thank you
for the brave kindness

You have shown
to my family.

h*, h*, h*!

Don't give it a second thought,
my good man!

The pleasure
was all ours!

How can I ever
repay you?

There's no need.

We're just showing you
the love god showed us!

If you want to repay me,
go and do the same thing!

That I will, sir!
That I will!

You know, I think your father
would be proud of you, nicholas.

Thanks a lot,
octapus.

Woah!
Hey, watch it nickelback.

Oh yeah?

october?

Knick knack

And that, kids,

Wow!

I had no idea!

Not many people do.

Tell us about reindeer,
bob!

[Bells chiming]

Another time,
larry.

We need to head
to the christmas eve service.

Thanks, bob.

I sure learned an awful lot

I'm glad, annie.

Hey, jimmy!
[Whispers]

Whatcha guys doin?

[Whispers]

Seriously?

That's a great idea!
I'm in!

Thank you mrs. Hubert
for that lovely rendition

Of "while by my sheep".

You may have noticed that we are

♪ Joy to the world
the lord has come. ♪

♪ Let earth receive...♪

[Knocking at door]

What in the world
is all that racket?

I'm coming, I'm coming,

Mr. Knock on my door
when we're closed.

What do you want?

Is this enough
to fix the truck?

What kind of a joke
is this?

Take your penny
someplace else.

We're closed.

Will this help?

[Pastor] if you'll all please
get out your hymnals,

On this sacred night we're
gonna sing a few songs...

We have to help out others
in need, dad.

[Pastor continues to talk]

...the tidings of gladness
and any...

Where'd everybody go!

Tell me,
why ya doin' this?

Givin' yer money to fix a crummy
old truck that's not even yours?

Jesus gave everything -

When we know how
much jesus loves us,

It makes us want to share
his love with others

Just like
saint nicholas did.

I was going
to use this

To buy a new pair
of christmas socks.

For my collection.

Well, you're still
a dollar short!
