Hip, hip...
Yaw-aw!

Look's like we're getting some new neighbors.
Wow! Get a load of all those decorations!

For a holiday get-together.
That might bring some cheer.

Ooh! What a miserable day.
(Laughing ominously )
It hasn't snowed in o-town for decades!
Just miserable rain.
(Mockingly ): oh, no! Not on christmas!
Boo-hoo!
Oh, ed, tomorrow's christmas.
Can't you try and enjoy it for once?
Ha!
Well, you go ahead, you just be that way.
And close your robe, for cripes' sake.
I am going to have a lovely holiday, anyway.
(Jingle bells ringing )
(Crunching and slurping )
Every year it gets worse.
(Gasping )
Have you seen this?
Have youseen what's moved in?
Oh, isn't it pretty?
I willnot tolerate this--
This eyesore in our neighborhood.

Good-bye.
Looks like our little gathering
Is turning into a big, giant party.
We got to inviteeverybody
Or someone's feelings might get hurt.
(Phone rings )
All right, spunky.
The invites are on the way.
Now let's go to the mall for some supplies.
(Grunting )
It's gonna snow
I can feel it.
Hey, look--
That's the house that was moving in today.
Looks like they have christmas cheer.
Hello
Little fellow.
(Bicycle bell jingling )
Don't be afraid.
We're neighbors.
Shy.
All right, we're going now.
Good-bye.
(Jingling, clattering )
(Thundering )
(Chain saw whirring )
Let's get a tree, spunk.
Welcome to pine palace.
Filburt, you're selling trees?
Shush!
Don't interrupt my sales pitch.
Walk this way to the wonder that is pine.
Hey, rocko.
Heffer and I are cashing in on the holidays.
Thanks to the o-town academy of business
Correspondence school.
Behold our gala assortment.
(Panting )
Rocko: this is it, huh?
Well, I don't know.
(Whistling, panting ) how about...
Um, um...
Snap it up, tree sloth.
I ain't got all day.
(Whispering ): salesman talk.
Rocko: um... Okay... Uh...
That one.
Filburt: excellent choice.
(Barking ecstatically )
Are you a gardener?
You should be!
Sale!
Coming right up, fil.

And aloha.

(Barking excitedly ) what is it, spunky?
No, no, spunky.
The line is much too long.
(Barking angrily )
Maybe later.
(In a deadpan voice ): bring the children to fruitcake man.
I love the children.
Go on, take a gift.
I feel nothing.

Man: well, well.
What have we got here?
A pixie?
Or a leprechaun.
Top o' the morning to ye!
(Jeering )
Excuse me.
All: yes, sir.
How may we help you?
You could start by picking on someone your own size!
(Snarling )
If it's not too much trouble.
Hey, fellas--
The pixie-lover looks like he's about our size.
What can we do for you... Pixie-lover?
Um, well...
Do you have this in an ½?
In plaid?
All: you bet we do!

Come on.
Go get it!
Aren't you the guy
That lives across the street?
(Jingling vigorously )
Are you alone here?
(Jingling vigorously )
Come on, then, I'll get you home.
(Jingling )
(Grunting )
Wow!
(Loud music and bells )
(Music screeches to halt )
(Jingling, clattering ) yeah?
I live across the street.
I found this little fellow at the mall.
(Jingling )
Um, I think he's yours... Is he?
Hmm...
Yup.
You want to come in or something?
(Jingling, clattering )
Rocko: ooh, wow!
(Train whistle blowing )
You're all elves.
(Softly ): ho, ho, ho, ho...
Okay, control.
We'll try the "ho, ho, ho" button again.
(Motor running )
Duck!
It's great having elves in the neighborhood.
(Slurping )
Where can I find christmas cheer?
(Flatly ): what do you mean?
Well, my idea of a great christmas is...
Oh, thank you.
Christmas to me is everyone forgetting their differences
And coming together
Singing and laughing
Celebrating the spirit of the season.
You know, christmas cheer?
You mean cookies and presents and decorations?
Uh, uh, yes.
(Chuckling nervously )
Um-hmm.
Maybe you'd like to meet some of the g*ng.
Yes, I'd love to.
(Clears throat )
(Yells ): sound off!
Mango?
I was feeling fruity.
Ohh!
Uh, you know...
Screwdriver, nail g*n...
Crowbar, and, uh, jigsaw...
But do you recall
The most famous elf of all...?
Uh, no, I don't.
That'd be mitch.
He had three legs!
And was the last elf
Who could make it snow.
Oh, I'd love for it to snow.
Yeah... Well.
We lost him in a blizzard.
Thank you very much for your hospitality.
You're welcome, rocko.
I'm having a party.
It'd be lovely if you could come.
Party? Uhh...
It's a christmas party.
Oh, then, heck, yeah.
All: yippee!
See you at :.
Head elf: right.
Oh, my gosh!
It's... It's elves.
There's elves living in the neighborhood!
I had my suspicions.
If there's anything I hate more than christmas
(Shouting ): it's elves!
Oh, ed, what is wrong with elves?
They're probably very nice.
I'm sure we'll meet them at rocko's party tonight.
Party?
We didn't get an invitation!
I never get invited to christmas parties.
Oh, you are ridiculous!
Of course we're invited.
Orvie called and said it's gonna be a big blow-out!
Our invite must have got lost in the mail.
Go ahead, go ahead!
You go to the party
With those weirdoes and christmas freaks!
(Muttering angrily )
Hello!
Tree's delivered.
Everything's fine.
Where's heff?
At the lot.
Christmas trees, half off!
Whoo-hoo!
Shows potential, that heffer.
See you at the party.
Don't worry-- the tree'll settle.
Okay.
Thanks, filburt.
So...
Going to the christmas party, eh?
Yeah.
I hearelves are going to be there.
So?
Oh, don't be silly, filburt, my boy.
Everybody knows elves carry...
Festering foot fungi!
Fungi!
I'm nauseous.
(Laughing evilly )
I'm nauseous.
(Laughing )
I will ruin rocko's party
And teach those elves
Not to move into ed bighead's neighborhood!
Filburt: sugar nose.
Dr. Hutchison: sweet st*lks.
Hutch, I can't go to rocko's party.
I'm getting sick.
Foot-fungi-ridden elves will be there!
Since you feel strongly about it
We'll skip the party.
But I'll be over later, turtle dove.
Right.
(Throwing up )
(Dialing )
Gordon, filburt's not going to rocko's
So I'm staying home, too.
He's afraid he'll catch foot fungi from the elves.
(Laughing )
Foot fungi!
We'recertainly not going.
Man: no!
Hey, listen...
(Excited babbling )
Disease!
(Excited babbling )
(Excited babbling )
I wouldn't go there!
(Excited babbling )
All right, then.
Thank you for calling.
Attention, please, everyone.
Word about town is
That a tribe of criminal, diseasedtrolls
Will be attending tonight's affair.
(Gasping )
And I think we all agree
That we don't want to get mixed up in any of that.
No, son, I'm sorry
We just can't risk it.
Ed: I brought you a few little essentials...
Ooh! Be sure and get me in minutes
So I won't be late.
But I really got to get out
And get ready for rocko's party, darling.
Of course, dear.
Ahh!
(Chuckling nastily )
(Slams door )
(Snoring )
Everything's perfect.
Pretty soon our house will be filled
With people laughing, singing christmas carols
And maybe, if we're lucky, we'll find some christmas cheer.
(Disco b*at ): ♪ we're gonna party, party
♪ We're gonna party, party
(expl*si*n )
(Ticks, then strikes )
I don't understand it, spunky.
Nobody showed up.
Maybe the invitations didn't make it.
Maybe heff and filburt got held up.
Heff: tree for sale.
Everything must go.
And it didn't even snow.
I don't know if I'll ever find christmas cheer.
(Whining sadly )
Yes, please.
Um, australia?
Mr. And mrs...
(Excited babbling )
Oh, what's that?
(Excited babbling )
All circuits are busy.
I'll try back.
Thanks.
Well, spunky, at least we've got each other.
We'll make it a good christmas.
Let's call it a night.
(Doorbell rings )
Oh, hello, there.
(Jingling )
I'm afraid I'm not in much of a party mood anymore.
(Blows raspberry )
Ah, come on in.
(Jingling, clattering )
My little gathering was a bit of a bust.
(Jingling )
I guess I'm not very good at this christmas stuff.
(Jingling, clattering )
(Boinging )
Well... All right.
(Jingling ) (clears throat )
"'Twas the night before christmas
"And all through the house, nothing was stirring
"Not even a mouse.
"The stockings were hung by the chimney with care...
"As he drove out of sight...
"Merry christmas to all
And to all... Good night."

Dr. Hutchison: remarkable!
Head elf: looks good!
Unbelievable!
Hey, look, everybody... It's mitch.
(Elves jingling, cheering )
Good to see you, my boy.
We thought we'd lost you in that blizzard.
Did you do this?
(In british accent ): no, daddy.
I wasn't lost.
I went into seclusion.
Seclusion? But why?
(Zipping )
Because christmas cheer
Had all but disappeared.
Our little brother here proved
He has a true christmas cheer.
As did only one other.
Rocko! Rocko!
(Door creaks )
(Birds chirping )
Hey, rocko.
Rocko...
I'm sorry I got so wrapped up
In selling trees that I missed your party.
And I'm sorry...
Oh!
We're sorry we spread awful rumors
And ruined your party.
Apology accepted.
Hey, are you going to finish these snacks?
Help yourself, heffer.
There's enough for everyone.
Come on in, everyone.
Merry christmas!
All: merry christmas.
Happy christmas, filburt, dr. Hutchison.
Both: merry christmas, rocko.
Merry christmas, dear.
(Lively party chatter )
Everybody's froggin' it with a yuletide b*at.
No, daddy, not everyone.
(Steam hissing )
(Doorbell rings )
Ha! Then iwas invited.
(Screaming )
Why, you!
(Screaming )
(Glass shattering )
Oh, ed!
Thank you, little elf.
I guess christmas cheer was in us all along.
(Phone rings )
Hi, mom and dad.
I miss you, too.
Happy christmas.
