SANTA CLAUS: Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho.
ELMO: Santa!
SANTA CLAUS: Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!
ELMO: Santa!
Oh!
SANTA CLAUS: Well, if it isn't Elmo Monster.
ELMO: Wow.
He knows Elmo's name.
SANTA CLAUS: Well, of course I do.
Why, you've been on the top of my nice list.
You've been a very good little monster this year, Elmo.
ELMO: Oh, go on with you, Santa.
SANTA CLAUS: Well, so what brings you up
to the North Pole?
That train I brought you last Christmas
didn't break, did it?
ELMO: No, no, Santa.
Elmo still has his train and he uses it all the time.
SANTA CLAUS: Good!
ELMO: Elmo loves trains conducting.
Woo woo woo!
Chugga-chugga.
SANTA CLAUS: Woo!
Woo!
[BOTH LAUGH]
SANTA CLAUS: Well then, Elmo, I think I
know why you're here.
So why don't you sit right here in my lap and tell me
what you want for Christmas.
ELMO: Well, now Santa, what Elmo really wants, more than
anything in the world--
SANTA CLAUS: Yes?
ELMO: Is to give a present to Dorothy.
SANTA CLAUS: Your goldfish, Dorothy?
ELMO: Wow!
Santa knows Dorothy!
Elmo's been trying and trying to find the perfect present
for Dorothy.
SANTA CLAUS: Oh, my.
ELMO: But Elmo can't think of what to get her.
SANTA CLAUS: Oh, my, my, my, Elmo.
Do you know what you have?
ELMO: A problem?
SANTA CLAUS: No.
You have true Christmas spirit.
Why, you've come all the way up here to ask for something
for someone you love, instead of yourself.
And that is true Christmas spirit.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
SANTA CLAUS: [SINGING]
Christmas carols fill the air.
Christmas lights are glowing everywhere.
Seems all the world is dressed in red and green.
Quite the best you've ever seen.
And then on Christmas morning, there will be one more gift
you may not even see.
It won't be wrapped in shiny paper, tied with ribbons.
But every Christmas, you recall that someone's love's
the greatest present of all.
BOTH: [SINGING]
That someone's love's the greatest present of all.
[BOTH LAUGH]
ELMO: So-- so Santa thinks Elmo should give Dorothy a
gift that shows how much Elmo loves her?
SANTA CLAUS: That's right, Elmo.
Give her something that comes from your heart.
ELMO: Well, like what?
SANTA CLAUS: Well, Elmo, only you know what's in your heart.
ELMO: Oh.
SANTA CLAUS: But I think if you use your imagination,
you'll be able to come up with something, I'm sure.
ELMO: Oh, use Elmo's imagination?
SANTA CLAUS: That's right.
HAROLD THE ELF: Hey, boss, your sleigh
blew a gasket again.
SANTA CLAUS: I'll be right there, Harold!
If you'll excuse me, Elmo, I've got to get back to work.
Why, this is my busy time of the year, you know
ELMO: Elmo understands.
Oh, thank you, Santa.
SANTA CLAUS: Oh, you're welcome, Elmo.
ELMO: Thank you.
[BOTH LAUGH]
SANTA CLAUS: Oh, and Elmo.
ELMO: Oh, yeah, Santa?
SANTA CLAUS: Merry Christmas.
Ho, ho, ho!
ELMO: Merry Christmas!
