Episode Title: "A Holiday Story" Aired on: Dec 08, 2021.
Oh, yeah, I gots that good hot cocoa,
and all 'em gifts for my friends.
Ain't nothing gonna ruin my holiday cheer,
yo.
It's Santa Claus!
Get back here, you garbage kid!
Phew! That was close.
Season's greetings.
Oh, mans!
I'm so tired of dealing with you
year after year.
Think of it as a...
A holiday tradition.
Wells, you can keep your tradition.
Now, let me go!
I'm afraid I can't do that.
I need your help getting me back in
with the Holiday Mob.
You mean that criminal organization
that's run by Baby New Year?
That's the one.
Well, I'm sures they'd love to have you
'cause yous even shadier than they is!
But that's the problem.
They haven't trusted me
since the time we celebrated New Year's down in Ky-U-Ba.
Happy New Year!
I'm delighted, to be celebrating with you,
my most trusted friend.
You're like a brother to me, Santa.
Likewise.
Boss!
We caught this reindeer snooping outside with this.
Ooh! We think he was about to make a move on you.
Is that true? Are you moving in on me?
Oh, no, no, no.
Of course not.
That could be anybody's reindeer and bazooka
with my name engraved on it.
It's not mine.
Muah!
I know it was you, Santa.
You broke my heart.
- Take him away, boys. - No!
Ever since that day,
I've missed my brothers in the mob.
That's so sad, bro.
Is there anything I can do to help you get back in?
Put this on.
Why do I gots to dress like an elf?
Because the Holiday Mob loves elves.
And if I'm going to get back in,
I need a trusted source to, uh...
vouch for me.
You know the plan.
Now get in there and don't em-bar-rass me.
And remember, Santa is watching you.
Italian accordion music playing...
Who do we have here?
The name's Donnie Mistletoe.
I'm the elf who unionizes all of Santa's Workshops.
It's an honor to meet you.
You have done a great service to our elf brothers up north.
They're my top earners.
I owe you a ton of gratitude.
Glad to hear that
'cause I needs to ask for a favor.
And what is this favor?
I want you to let Santa back into the organization.
Forget it. This, I cannot do.
But Santa really misses you guys
and wants to make amends.
Plus, ain't your holiday
all about fresh starts and new beginnings?
You make a good case, Donnie.
But how do I know I can trust him?
Do you vouch for him?
Sure, I'll vouch for him.
Then make it official by kissing the ring.
But that thing is nasty, yo.
Do it.
There.
Good. Good.
Now, where's that jolly cub of a Santa?
He's up on the roof.
Come on down, Santa.
- Ho-ho-ho! - Ow!
- Merry... Ow! Ow, ow! - Save it.
If you even think about making a move on me again,
I'll make sure both you and your little helper
never celebrate another New Year.
- Capische? - Yes.
Understood.
Ow!
So that's it, right?
- Santa's back in? - Not quite.
First, you two bozos are gonna go to work for me.
So Santa here can prove his loyalty.
Of course, we'll do anything.
That's good.
I need you to visit some business associates of mine
that need a little persuading.
Hey there, Georgie boy.
Santa Claus?
Hop in.
No, no, no, no, no.
Sit in the front seat with me.
He said the front seat!
So tell me, how are things?
They're good, I guess.
Why so nervous?
We's only going for a ride.
You know, I heard a nasty rumor
that you never paid the Boss his cut
from President's Day.
So let me ask you, where'd you put the money?
Why, I-I-I don't know what you're talking about.
Then allow me to be a little more clearer.
- Ow! - Where's the money, George?
Where's the money, huh?
Where's the money?
What money?
Nobody spends any money on President's Day.
Oh, yeah?
Then what's about all 'em good President's Day sales?
Give those back!
You're not going to find anything!
Oh, really? Then what's this?
Looks like the Boss' money if you ask me.
Fine, take it!
A pleasure doing business with you.
Merry Christmas!
What's this?
Move that rubbish outta me way!
Good tidings to you.
What's the meaning of this?
Mm-mmm-mmm!
That's some good milkshakes you gots there.
Hey! No skimming off the top.
We're not skimming off the top.
We're taking the whole thing.
Oh, shamrocks.
Listen, my furry friend, the Boss wants to make this
the most successful nightclub in all of Mi-am-mi.
- Got it? - But in order to do that,
he's going to need you
to call an early spring on Groundhogs Day
so we can pack this place full of spring breakers.
But-But I'm not gonna pretend
that I'm not afraid of my shadow
just so you can make money off of some club.
Oh, really?
It sounds like our friend here needs some convincing.
So, you're afraid of shadows, are you?
Well, let's see how you like this?
I can do a bunny!
No bunny, no bunny.
- A birdie. - No, no, no.
- You like that? - I'm not gonna look.
- Please don't! - A cute, little puppy.
No, no, no. Not a puppy.
Okay!
Okay. I'll call an early spring.
Just stop with the shadows!
See? That wasn't so hard.
Merry Christmas, you filthy animal.
Oh!
Well done, boys
We've just got word from the Boss.
He's impressed with your work...
and has decided to make Santa a made man.
- He wants me back in! - Whoo-hoo!
Oh, yeah. We did it, yo!
Italian accordion music playing...
Give me your hands.
Now repeat after me.
May I roast like chestnuts on an open fire
if I ever betray my friends again.
"May I roast like chestnuts on an open fire
if I ever betray my friends again."
Congratulations.
You're officially, back in.
Thank you. Thank you.
And in honor of this special occasion,
I've got a surprise waiting for you outside.
A brand new tricycle?
This is what I've always wanted for Christmas, Santa.
Get down!
It's an ambush!
Ho-ho-ho!
Now surrender. This operation belongs to me.
I can't believe we trusted you.
And this is how you repay me?
Oh, don't be such a crybaby.
Now that I'm in charge of this family,
nothing can stop me
from taking over all of the holidays!
Not so fast, Santa.
You ain't the only one giving out surprises today.
The Feds!
Hey, I'm Baby New Year!
Let us go.
Thanks to my undercover operation,
the government now has enough evidence
to put you all behind bars for a long, long time.
You dirty rat.
When I get my hands on you...
Yeah, yeah. Tell it to the judge.
Enjoy your Holiday, Beast Boy.
Because next year, Santa Claus is coming to town.
