:05:02
But we haven't got a glass.
:05:03
I'll get one from Mr. Scrooge's office.
:05:15
- What is this?
- Cough medicine.

:05:17
Yeah, I thought so.
:05:20
We will.
:05:21
- We will have some more coal.
- Good man, Bob.

:05:31
Come on now, Bob.
Let's drink a loving cup. You sweeten it.

:05:34
- Another merry Christmas, Mr. Fred.
- Yes.

:05:43
A merry Christmas to you, Uncle.
God save you.

:05:45
Humbug!
:05:46
Christmas, humbug?
Uncle, I'm sure you don't mean that.

:05:49
Humbug I said, and humbug I mean.
:05:52
Merry Christmas.
What right have you to be merry?

:05:55
- You're poor enough.
- What right have you to be dismal?

:05:57
- You're rich enough.
- Humbug.

:06:00
Now, Uncle, don't be cross.
:06:01
What else can I be
when I live in such a world of fools?

:06:04
Merry Christmas.
:06:06
What's Christmastime, but a time
for paying bills without money?

:06:09
A time for finding yourself a year older
and not an hour richer.

:06:13
If I could work my will, every idiot
that goes about with "merry Christmas"...

:06:16
on his lips should be boiled
with his own pudding...

:06:19
and buried with a stake of holly
through his heart.

:06:21
- Uncle!
- Nephew!

:06:23
Keep Christmas in your own way,
and let me keep it in mine.

:06:26
- But you don't keep it.
- Let me leave it alone then.

:06:29
Much good it has ever done you.
:06:32
Uncle, there are many things
which have made me happy.

:06:35
Things which have never
fattened my purse by even that much.

:06:39
Christmas is one of these.
:06:41
I've always looked on Christmas
as a good time...

:06:44
a kind, charitable, forgiving, pleasant time.
:06:47
It's the only time
when people open their hearts freely.

:06:50
The only time
when men and women seem to realize...

:06:53
that all human beings
are really members of the same family.

:06:56
And that being members
of the same family...

:06:58
they owe each other
some measure of warmth and solace.
