It was the afternoon
of Christmas Eve...
:33:05
and Scrooge was conscious
of a thousand odours...
:33:08
each one connected
with a thousand thoughts...
:33:10
and hopes and joys and cares...
:33:13
long. Long forgotten.
:33:17
It's my old school.
I was a boy here.
:33:22
That... That's Henry!
:33:25
And Edmund. My best friend.
:33:27
Hello. Boys.
Hello?
:33:30
These are but shadows
of your past. Ebenezer.
:33:32
They can neither see nor hear you.
:33:35
Come and let us go inside.
:33:39
- Rizzo. Stop playing with the cat.
- Help me! Save me!
:33:42
- Help me! Save me! Help me! Save me!
- Follow me.
:33:44
Help me! Save me!
:33:47
Ow.
:34:02
And what a flood of memories
came back to him...
:34:05
as Scrooge beheld his old classroom.
:34:09
I know it all so well. Spirit.
:34:12
The desks.
:34:15
The smell of the chalk.
:34:19
I chose my profession in this room.
:34:21
And is he. Too. Familiar?
:34:27
Scrooge beheld a small boy...
:34:29
a boy he knew.
oh. Very well indeed.
:34:35
Good heavens.
It's me.
:34:40
Hurry. Ebenezer.
The last coach is leaving.
:34:42
Come on.
He never goes home for Christmas.
:34:44
Who cares about stupid old Christmas?
:34:49
I was often alone.
:34:52
More time for reading and study.
:34:56
The Christmas holiday was a chance
to get some extra work done.
