1. Ooh! Careful, Homer!
Copy !req
2. There's no time to be careful. We're late.
Copy !req
3. Sorry. Excuse me. Pardon me.
Copy !req
4. - Sorry. Excuse me.
- Hey, Norman, how's it goin'?
Copy !req
5. So you got dragged down here
too?
Copy !req
6. - How you doin', Fred?
- Sorry. Excuse me.
Copy !req
7. Yeah. 'Scuse me.
Copy !req
8. Pardon my galoshes.
Copy !req
9. Wasn't that wonderful?
Copy !req
10. And now "Santas of Many Lands,"
Copy !req
11. as presented by the entire
second grade class.
Copy !req
12. Lisa's class.
Copy !req
13. Frohliche Weihnachten.
Copy !req
14. That's German for
"Merry Christmas."
Copy !req
15. In Germany,
Santa's servant Ruprecht
Copy !req
16. gives presents to good children,
Copy !req
17. and whipping rods
to the parents of bad ones.
Copy !req
18. Merry Kurisumasu.
Copy !req
19. I am Hotseiosha,
Copy !req
20. a Japanese priest
who acts like Santa Claus.
Copy !req
21. I have eyes
in the back of my head,
Copy !req
22. so children better behave
when I'm nearby.
Copy !req
23. Now presenting Lisa Simpson
Copy !req
24. as Tawanga, the Santa Claus
of the South Seas.
Copy !req
25. Ooh, it's Lisa!
That's ours.
Copy !req
26. The fourth grade
Copy !req
27. will now favor us
with a melody...
Copy !req
28. Medley
of holiday "flavorites."
Copy !req
29. He sings like an angel.
Copy !req
30. The fifth grade will now favor us
Copy !req
31. with a scene from
Charles... Dickens'
Copy !req
32. "A Christmas Carol."
Copy !req
33. How many grades
does this school have?
Copy !req
34. "Dear friends of the Simpson family,
Copy !req
35. "We had some sadness and
some gladness this year.
Copy !req
36. "First, the sadness.
Our little cat Snowball
Copy !req
37. "was unexpectedly run over
and went to kitty heaven.
Copy !req
38. "But we bought a new little cat,
Snowball II.
Copy !req
39. "So I guess life goes on.
Copy !req
40. "Speaking of life going on,
Copy !req
41. "Grandpa is still with us,
feisty as ever.
Copy !req
42. "Maggie is walking by herself,
Copy !req
43. "Lisa got straight A's,
and Bart...
Copy !req
44. "Well, we love Bart.
Copy !req
45. "The magic of the season
has touched us all.
Copy !req
46. Marge, haven't you finished
that stupid letter yet?
Copy !req
47. - "Homer sends his love. Happy holidays.
- Marge!
Copy !req
48. - The Simpsons."
- Marge, where's the extension cord?
Copy !req
49. For heaven's sake, Homer.
It's in the utility drawer.
Copy !req
50. Sorry.
I'm just a big kid.
Copy !req
51. And I love Christmas so much.
Copy !req
52. D'
Copy !req
53. All right, children,
let me have those letters.
Copy !req
54. I'll send them to Santa's workshop
at the North Pole.
Copy !req
55. Please. There's only one fat guy
that brings us presents,
Copy !req
56. and his name ain't Santa.
Copy !req
57. A pony?
Copy !req
58. Lisa, you've asked for that
for the last three years,
Copy !req
59. and I keep telling you
Copy !req
60. Santa can't fit a pony
into his sleigh.
Copy !req
61. Can't you take a hint?
Copy !req
62. But I really want a pony,
Copy !req
63. and I've been really,
really good this year.
Copy !req
64. Dear. Maybe Bart is
a little more realistic.
Copy !req
65. - A tattoo?
- A what?
Copy !req
66. Yeah! They're cool,
and they last the rest of your life.
Copy !req
67. You will not be getting
a tattoo for Christmas.
Copy !req
68. Yeah. If you want one,
Copy !req
69. you'll have to pay for it
out of your own allowance.
Copy !req
70. - All right!
- Homer!
Copy !req
71. "Yello."
Copy !req
72. - Marge, please.
- Who's this?
Copy !req
73. May I please speak to Marge?
Copy !req
74. - This is her sister, isn't it?
- Is Marge there?
Copy !req
75. - Who shall I say is calling?
- Marge, please.
Copy !req
76. It's your sister.
Copy !req
77. - Hello.
- Hello, Marge. It's Patty.
Copy !req
78. Selma and I couldn't be
more excited
Copy !req
79. about seeing our baby sister
for Christmas Eve.
Copy !req
80. Well, Homer and I
Copy !req
81. are looking forward
to your visit too.
Copy !req
82. Somehow I doubt
that Homer is excited.
Copy !req
83. Of all the men
you could've married,
Copy !req
84. I don't know why you picked one
who's always so rude to us.
Copy !req
85. Good one, Dad.
Copy !req
86. Okay, kids,
prepare to be dazzled.
Copy !req
87. Marge, turn on the juice!
Copy !req
88. What do you think, kids?
Copy !req
89. Nice try, Dad.
Copy !req
90. Just hold
your horses, son. Hey, Simpson!
Copy !req
91. What is it, Flanders?
Copy !req
92. Do you think this looks okay?
Copy !req
93. Ho ho ho.
Ho ho ho.
Copy !req
94. Neato!
Copy !req
95. It's too bright.
Copy !req
96. I oughta... Flanders.
What a big show-off.
Copy !req
97. - Kids, you wanna go Christmas shopping?
- I do!
Copy !req
98. - All right! The mall!
- Go get your money.
Copy !req
99. Tell us, Marge.
Copy !req
100. Where have you been hiding
the Christmas money?
Copy !req
101. I have my secrets.
Copy !req
102. Turn around.
Copy !req
103. You can look now.
Copy !req
104. Ooh! Big jar this year.
Copy !req
105. Bart, that's so sweet.
Copy !req
106. It's the best present
a mother could get,
Copy !req
107. and it makes you look
so dangerous.
Copy !req
108. One "Mother," please.
Copy !req
109. Wait a minute.
How old are you?
Copy !req
110. - Twenty-one, sir.
- Get in the chair.
Copy !req
111. Attention,
all personnel, please keep working
Copy !req
112. during the following announcement.
Copy !req
113. And now our boss
and friend Mr. Burns.
Copy !req
114. Hello.
I'm proud to announce
Copy !req
115. that we've been able
to increase safety here at the plant
Copy !req
116. without increasing the cost
to the consumer
Copy !req
117. or affecting management
pay raises.
Copy !req
118. However, for you
semi-skilled workers,
Copy !req
119. there will be
no Christmas bonuses.
Copy !req
120. And one more thing.
Copy !req
121. Merry Christmas!
Copy !req
122. Thank God for the big jar.
Copy !req
123. Where's that Bart?
Copy !req
124. But, Mom,
I thought you'd like it.
Copy !req
125. Yes, Mrs. Simpson,
we can remove your son's tattoo.
Copy !req
126. It's a simple routine
involving lasers.
Copy !req
127. - Cool!
- However, it is rather expensive,
Copy !req
128. and we must insist
on a cash payment up front.
Copy !req
129. Cash?
Copy !req
130. Thank God for
Homer's Christmas bonus.
Copy !req
131. Ay, caramba!
Copy !req
132. Now, whatever you do,
boy, don't squirm.
Copy !req
133. You don't wanna get this sucker
near your eye or your groin.
Copy !req
134. Quit it.
Copy !req
135. Quit it.
Copy !req
136. Quit it.
Copy !req
137. - Quit it.
- Hey, what's with this?
Copy !req
138. Quit it!
Copy !req
139. Used to be a real boss tattoo.
Copy !req
140. But Mom had to spend
all the Christmas money
Copy !req
141. having it surgically removed.
Copy !req
142. It's true!
Copy !req
143. The jar is empty!
My God!
Copy !req
144. We're ruined.
Christmas is canceled.
Copy !req
145. No presents for anyone!
Copy !req
146. Don't worry, Homer.
Copy !req
147. We'll just have to stretch
your Christmas bonus
Copy !req
148. even further this year.
Copy !req
149. - Homer?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
150. My Christmas bonus.
Copy !req
151. How silly of me.
Copy !req
152. This'll be the best
Christmas yet.
Copy !req
153. The best any family ever had.
Copy !req
154. Ho ho ho.
Copy !req
155. Ho ho ho.
Copy !req
156. Ho ho ho.
Copy !req
157. Ho ho ho.
Ho ho ho.
Copy !req
158. I get the feeling
Copy !req
159. there's something you
haven't told me, Homer.
Copy !req
160. I love you, Marge.
Copy !req
161. You tell me that all the time.
Copy !req
162. Good, because I do love you.
Copy !req
163. I don't deserve you as much
as a guy with a fat wallet
Copy !req
164. and a credit card that won't
set off that horrible beeping.
Copy !req
165. I think it does have
something to do with
Copy !req
166. your Christmas bonus.
Copy !req
167. I keep asking for it, but...
Copy !req
168. Marge, um,
let me be honest with you.
Copy !req
169. Yes?
Copy !req
170. Well, I would...
Copy !req
171. I wanna do the Christmas
shopping this year.
Copy !req
172. Sure, okay.
Copy !req
173. Marge, Marge.
Let's see.
Copy !req
174. Ooh, look!
Copy !req
175. Pantyhose.
Practical and alluring.
Copy !req
176. A six-pack.
Only 4.99.
Copy !req
177. Ooh! Pads of paper.
Copy !req
178. I bet Bart can think of
Copy !req
179. a million things to do
with these.
Copy !req
180. That just leaves little Maggie.
Copy !req
181. Look!
Copy !req
182. A little squeak toy.
Copy !req
183. It says it's for dogs,
but she can't read.
Copy !req
184. Simpson, it's you.
Copy !req
185. - Hello, Flanders.
- My!
Copy !req
186. What a little mess
we've got here.
Copy !req
187. Well, which ones are yours
and which ones are mine?
Copy !req
188. - Well, let's see...
- This one's mine. This one's mine.
Copy !req
189. - This one's mine, and this...
- They're all yours!
Copy !req
190. Hey, Mr. Simpson,
you dropped your pork chop.
Copy !req
191. Gimme that!
Copy !req
192. Well, happy holidays, Simpson.
Copy !req
193. Gee, Dad, this is gonna be
the best Christmas ever.
Copy !req
194. You bet.
Copy !req
195. What's the matter, Homer?
Copy !req
196. Somebody leave a lump of coal
in your stocking?
Copy !req
197. You've been sitting there,
sucking on a beer all day long.
Copy !req
198. - So?
- So, it's Christmas.
Copy !req
199. Drinks all around!
Copy !req
200. What's with
the crazy getup, Barn?
Copy !req
201. I got me a part-time job
Copy !req
202. working as a Santa
down at the mall.
Copy !req
203. Wow! Can I do that?
Copy !req
204. I don't know. They're pretty selective.
Copy !req
205. Do you like children?
Copy !req
206. What do you mean?
Copy !req
207. All the time?
Even when they're nuts?
Copy !req
208. I certainly do.
Copy !req
209. Welcome aboard, Simpson.
Copy !req
210. Pending your successful completion
of our training program, that is.
Copy !req
211. Ho ho ho.
Ho ho ho.
Copy !req
212. Ho ho ho.
Ho ho ho.
Copy !req
213. - What is it now, Simpson?
- When do we get paid?
Copy !req
214. Not a dime till Christmas Eve!
Copy !req
215. Now, from the top.
Copy !req
216. Ho ho ho.
Ho ho ho.
Copy !req
217. Um, Dasher.
Copy !req
218. Dancer.
Copy !req
219. Prancer.
Copy !req
220. Nixon.
Copy !req
221. Comet and... Cupid.
Copy !req
222. - Donna Dixon?
- Sit down, Simpson.
Copy !req
223. And what would you like,
little boy?
Copy !req
224. - You're not really Santa, tubby.
- Why, you little egghead!
Copy !req
225. No, no, Homer! If such
an emergency arises,
Copy !req
226. you just tell them Santa's
very busy this time of year,
Copy !req
227. and you are one of his helpers.
Copy !req
228. I knew that one too!
Copy !req
229. Homer, why are you
seven hours late?
Copy !req
230. Not a word, Marge.
I'm heading straight for the tub.
Copy !req
231. But, Homer, my sisters are here.
Copy !req
232. Don't you wanna say hello?
Copy !req
233. - Daddy! Daddy! We're so glad to see you!
- Dad, you're finally home!
Copy !req
234. What? Why?
Yeah.
Copy !req
235. Hello, Patty.
Hello, Selma.
Copy !req
236. - How was your trip?
- Fine.
Copy !req
237. - You both look well.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
238. Yeah, well, Merry Christmas.
Copy !req
239. It's Christmas?
Copy !req
240. - You wouldn't know it around here.
- And why is that?
Copy !req
241. Well, for one thing,
there's no tree.
Copy !req
242. Well, I was just on my way
out to get one!
Copy !req
243. - Can we go too, Dad?
- Yeah, can we?
Copy !req
244. No!
Copy !req
245. Hey, you! What do you
think you're doin'?
Copy !req
246. Hey! Hey!
Copy !req
247. Come back here!
Copy !req
248. So what do you think, kids?
Beauty, isn't it?
Copy !req
249. - Wow! Yay, Dad!
- Way to go, Dad!
Copy !req
250. Why is there a birdhouse in it?
Copy !req
251. That's an ornament.
Copy !req
252. Do I smell gunpowder?
Copy !req
253. And then I want some Robotoids.
Copy !req
254. And then I want a Goop Monster.
Copy !req
255. And then I want
a great big, giant...
Copy !req
256. Aw, son, you don't need
all that junk.
Copy !req
257. I'm sure you've already got something
much more important...
Copy !req
258. A decent home and
a loving father
Copy !req
259. who would do anything for you.
Copy !req
260. Hey, I couldn't afford lunch.
Give me a bite of that donut.
Copy !req
261. Get a load of that
quote-unquote Santa.
Copy !req
262. I can't believe those kids
are falling for it.
Copy !req
263. Hey, Milhouse, I dare you
to sit on his lap.
Copy !req
264. Yeah? Well, I dare you
to yank his beard off.
Copy !req
265. Touche.
Copy !req
266. I hope you feel better, Santa.
Copy !req
267. I will when
Mrs. Claus' sisters get outta town.
Copy !req
268. Thanks for listenin', kid.
Copy !req
269. Hey, Santa, what's shakin', man?
Copy !req
270. What's your name,
Bart... ner?
Copy !req
271. Little partner?
Copy !req
272. I'm Bart Simpson.
Who the hell are you?
Copy !req
273. I'm Jolly Old St. Nick.
Copy !req
274. Yeah?
We'll just see about that.
Copy !req
275. D'
Copy !req
276. - Homer!
- I want a word with you
Copy !req
277. in Santa's workshop, little boy.
Copy !req
278. Cover for me, Elfie.
Copy !req
279. Don't kill me, Dad.
I didn't know it was you.
Copy !req
280. Nobody knows.
It's a secret.
Copy !req
281. I didn't get my bonus this year.
Copy !req
282. But to keep the family
from missing out on Christmas,
Copy !req
283. - I'd do anything.
- I'll say, Dad.
Copy !req
284. You must really love us
to sink so low.
Copy !req
285. Now, let's not get mushy, son.
Copy !req
286. I still have a job to do.
Copy !req
287. Hey, little ones.
Santa's back.
Copy !req
288. Ho ho... D'
Copy !req
289. Damn it to...
Copy !req
290. Son, one day you're gonna know
Copy !req
291. the satisfaction of payday.
Copy !req
292. Receiving a big fat check
for a job well done.
Copy !req
293. Simpson, Homer?
Here ya go.
Copy !req
294. Come on, son.
Copy !req
295. Let's go cash this baby
and get presents for...
Copy !req
296. Thirteen bucks?
Hey, wait a minute.
Copy !req
297. That's right.
$120 gross.
Copy !req
298. Less Social Security,
less unemployment insurance,
Copy !req
299. - less Santa training...
- Santa training?
Copy !req
300. Less costume purchase,
less beard rental, less Christmas club.
Copy !req
301. - But... But...
- See ya next year.
Copy !req
302. Come on, Dad. Let's go home.
Copy !req
303. Thirteen bucks?
Copy !req
304. You can't get anything
for 13 bucks.
Copy !req
305. All right!
Thirteen big ones!
Copy !req
306. Springfield Downs, here I come!
Copy !req
307. - What?
- You heard me.
Copy !req
308. I'm goin' to the dog track.
Copy !req
309. I got a hot little puppy
in the fourth race.
Copy !req
310. - Wanna come?
- Sorry, Barney.
Copy !req
311. I may be a total washout
as a father,
Copy !req
312. but I'm not gonna take my kid
Copy !req
313. to a sleazy dog track
on Christmas Eve.
Copy !req
314. Come on, Simpson.
The dog's name is Whirlwind.
Copy !req
315. Ten-to-one shot.
Money in the bank.
Copy !req
316. Come on, Dad.
Copy !req
317. This can be the miracle that saves
the Simpsons' Christmas.
Copy !req
318. If TV has taught me anything,
Copy !req
319. it's that miracles always happen
to poor kids at Christmas.
Copy !req
320. It happened to Tiny Tim,
Copy !req
321. it happened to Charlie Brown,
Copy !req
322. it happened to the Smurfs,
Copy !req
323. and it's gonna happen to us.
Copy !req
324. Well, okay, let's go.
Who's Tiny Tim?
Copy !req
325. Hey, Moldy,
do you think Santa will be able to find
Copy !req
326. Elf County under all this snow?
Copy !req
327. I doubt it, Bubbles.
Copy !req
328. We'll be sad little elves
this Christmas.
Copy !req
329. - No!
- Brother.
Copy !req
330. - Where's your husband?
- Yeah. It's getting late.
Copy !req
331. Said he went caroling with Bart.
Copy !req
332. I can't believe I'm doing this.
Copy !req
333. Can we open
our presents now, Dad?
Copy !req
334. You know the tradition, son.
Not till the eighth race.
Copy !req
335. Hey, Barney,
which one is Whirlwind?
Copy !req
336. Number Six.
Copy !req
337. That's our lucky dog
right over there.
Copy !req
338. He's won his last five races.
Copy !req
339. What? That scrawny little
bag of bones?
Copy !req
340. Come on, Dad. They're all
scrawny little bags of bones.
Copy !req
341. Yeah, you're right.
Copy !req
342. I guess Whirlwind
is our only hope
Copy !req
343. for a Merry Christmas.
Copy !req
344. Attention,
racing fans, we have a late scratch
Copy !req
345. in the fourth race.
Copy !req
346. Number 8, Sir Galahad
Copy !req
347. will be replaced by
Santa's Little Helper.
Copy !req
348. Once again, Sir Galahad
Copy !req
349. has been replaced by
Santa's Little Helper.
Copy !req
350. Bart, did you hear that?
Copy !req
351. What a name!
Santa's Little Helper!
Copy !req
352. It's a sign!
It's an omen!
Copy !req
353. It's a coincidence, Dad.
Copy !req
354. What are the odds
on Santa's Little Helper?
Copy !req
355. Ninety-nine to one.
Copy !req
356. Wow! Ninety-nine
times thirteen equals...
Copy !req
357. Merry Christmas!
Copy !req
358. I got a bad feeling about this.
Copy !req
359. Don't you believe in me, son?
Copy !req
360. Come on, boy.
Sometimes your faith
Copy !req
361. is all that keeps me going.
Copy !req
362. Go for it, Dad.
Copy !req
363. That's my boy!
Copy !req
364. Everything on
Santa's Little Helper.
Copy !req
365. Three cheers for Brainy!
Copy !req
366. - Hip hip hooray!
- Yay!
Copy !req
367. Unadulterated pap.
Copy !req
368. - It's almost 9:00.
- Where's Homer anyway?
Copy !req
369. It's so typical of the big doofus
to spoil it all.
Copy !req
370. - What, Aunt Patty?
- Nothing, dear.
Copy !req
371. I'm just trashing your father.
Copy !req
372. Well, I wish you wouldn't
Copy !req
373. because aside from the fact that
Copy !req
374. he has the same frailties
as all human beings,
Copy !req
375. he's the only father I have.
Copy !req
376. Therefore, he is
my model of manhood,
Copy !req
377. and my estimation of him
Copy !req
378. will govern the prospects
of my adult relationships.
Copy !req
379. So I hope you bear in mind
Copy !req
380. that any knock at him
is a knock at me,
Copy !req
381. and I'm far too young
Copy !req
382. to defend myself
against such onslaughts.
Copy !req
383. Go watch
your cartoon show, dear.
Copy !req
384. Come on, Bart.
Copy !req
385. Kiss the ticket for good luck,
Copy !req
386. not that we need it.
Copy !req
387. Here comes Screwy
the mechanical rabbit.
Copy !req
388. And they're off!
Copy !req
389. - Come on, Santa's Little Helper!
- Come on, dog! Go, man, go!
Copy !req
390. It's Whirlwind in the lead,
and coming up on the left is Quadruped,
Copy !req
391. followed by Dog O'War and Fido.
Copy !req
392. - Go! Come on, boy!
- Go, Santa's Little Helper!
Copy !req
393. Come on, get that rabbit!
Copy !req
394. Dog O'War coming up fast
on the outside.
Copy !req
395. - Come on, Santa's Little Helper!
- Come on, dog! Go, man, go!
Copy !req
396. And with a lock on last place,
Copy !req
397. it's Santa's Little Helper.
Copy !req
398. Don't worry, Dad.
Copy !req
399. Maybe this is just for suspense
before the miracle happens.
Copy !req
400. - Come on, you stupid dog! Come on, boy!
- Go, go!
Copy !req
401. - Run! Run!
- Run! Come on, get that rabbit!
Copy !req
402. Go, go, Santa's Little Helper!
Go, go, go!
Copy !req
403. Whirlwind by a country mile,
Copy !req
404. and in second, Chew My Shoe,
followed by Dog O'War.
Copy !req
405. Jeez!
Copy !req
406. Doesn't seem possible,
but I guess TV has betrayed me.
Copy !req
407. I don't wanna leave
till our dog finishes.
Copy !req
408. Forget it.
Let's go.
Copy !req
409. - Find any winners, son?
- Sorry, Dad.
Copy !req
410. Hey, hey, Simpson!
What'd I tell you?
Copy !req
411. Whirlwind!
Let's go, Daria.
Copy !req
412. Beat it! Scram!
Get lost!
Copy !req
413. You came in last for the last time!
Copy !req
414. Look, Dad, it's Santa's Little Helper.
Copy !req
415. And don't come back!
Copy !req
416. No, you don't! No, no!
Get away from me!
Copy !req
417. Can we keep him, Dad, please?
Copy !req
418. But he's a loser!
He's pathetic! He's...
Copy !req
419. A Simpson.
Copy !req
420. Maybe I should call the police.
Copy !req
421. - He'll sober up.
- Yeah. Come staggering home.
Copy !req
422. Smelling of cheap perfume.
Copy !req
423. Homer!
Copy !req
424. - What? What the...
Who the... -Look, everybody,
Copy !req
425. - I have a confession to make.
- This should be good.
Copy !req
426. I didn't get my Christmas bonus.
Copy !req
427. I tried not to let it ruin Christmas for
everybody,
Copy !req
428. but no matter what I did...
Copy !req
429. Hey, everybody,
look what we got!
Copy !req
430. A dog!
All right, Dad!
Copy !req
431. God bless him.
Copy !req
432. So love at first sight
is possible.
Copy !req
433. And if he runs away,
he'll be easy to catch.
Copy !req
434. This is the best gift
of all, Homer!
Copy !req
435. - It is?
- Yes. Something to share our love
Copy !req
436. and frighten prowlers.
Copy !req
437. - What's his name?
- Number 8...
Copy !req
438. I mean, Santa's Little Helper.
Copy !req
439. - Like Shnozzola!
- Lisa!
Copy !req
440. - Like strip poker!
- I'm warning you two!
Copy !req
441. Shh.
