When Charlie Brown brings it back, everyone laughs at him. He asks if anyone knows the real meaning of Christmas. Linus says he does and quotes the Christmas story from chapter 2 of Luke in the Bible. Charlie Brown then takes the tree and heads home.

Nathan runs home and gives the shoes to her mother, who does not live much longer after that. Robert, having become a changed man, goes to find his wife and daughter who are singing.

Answer: Gonzo

Gonzo (voiced by Dave Goetz) tells Rizzo the Rat (voiced by Steve Whitmire) that he's Charles Dickens. Rizzo doesn't believe him, so he tells him the story (which he says he "knows as well as the back of my hand"). In the story, Ebenezer Scrooge (Michael Caine) hates everything to do with Christmas.

He is a very mean and miserable man. So his friends and former partners who have died, Marley and Marley (voiced by Jerry Nelson) tells Scrooge he needs to change and that three ghosts will be visiting him.

The first ghost is the ghost of Christmas past who shows Scrooge his life when he was younger and happier and the point at which he became miserable. The ghost of Christmas present shows Scrooge the house of his employee Bob Kratchit, played by Kermit the Frog (voiced by Steve Whitmire). Scrooge learns that Cratchit's youngest son, Tiny Tim (voiced by Jerry Nelson) is very ill and if he doesn't have an operation he will die.

However, Scrooge doesn't pay Cratchit enough so it looks like Tiny Tim will not get the operation he needs.

Despite all this Cratchit insists his family does not say bad things against Scrooge because Cratchit is happy to have a job at all. Scrooge starts to rethink his actions but still has one more ghost to meet. The ghost of Christmas Yet to Come comes and shows something that really scares Scrooge. Scrooge sees a grave with his name on it. He then learns that nobody cares and in fact, many are happy that he is dead. Scrooge vows to change and he wakes up Christmas morning a changed man.
