You're probably here about the story.
Another interesting elfism:
There are only three jobs available to an elf.
Lazy bum. Couldn't even make a clog.
You can bake cookies in a tree.
But the third job...
...some call it the show, or the big dance.
lt's the profession that every elf aspires to.
And that is to build toys in Santa's workshop.
Only two weeks left till Christmas.
lt's a job only an elf can do.
Our nimble fingers, natural cheer and active minds...
...are perfect for toy building.
...but the gnomes drank too much.
[GNOME BELCHES]
And the trolls weren't toilet trained.
[TROLL FARTS]
No human being has ever set foot in Santa's workshop.
That is, until about 30 years ago.
[YELPS]
Here we are.
We're just going to make you feel so comfortable.
There we are. There you are.
Maybe by next Christmas, you'll have a home.
SANTA: All right, all right.
...it's time to start preparations for next Christmas.
What in the name of Sam Hill is that?
Snuck into your sack at the orphanage.
What do we do?
So Santa had a decision to make.
...but had been so committed to building toys...
...well, he'd forgotten to settle down.
Santa.
I was his adopted father.
...he wasn't any different from the other children.
Not too fast, Buddy.
I mean, not really.
...let's recite the code of the elves, shall we?
Number one.
ALL: Treat every day like Christmas.
TEACHER: Number two.
TEACHER: Number three.
Never been in this room before.
Well, I think it's time you start your tinker training.
You're gonna help me make it fly.
I thought the magical reindeer made the sleigh fly.
PAPA ELF: Where do the reindeer get their magic from?
Christmas spirit.
Well, as silly as it sounds...
Who do they think puts all their toys under the tree?
I mean, parents couldn't do that all in one night.
Yeah, I know. I know.
I mean, we have a real energy crisis on our hands.
Oh.
I mean, just see how low the Clausometer is.
That's shocking.
It's a Kringle 3000.
Eighty-five hundred reindeer-power jet turbine engine.
Well, looks like we got a short in the thermo coupler.
Hey, Ming Ming.
It's all right, Buddy.
Just how many Etch A Sketches did you get finished?
That puts you...
...915 off the pace.
ELF 1: Ooh, that's bad.
I'm the worst toy maker in the world.
[ALL GASP]
No, Buddy, you're not a cotton-headed ninny muggins.
We all just have different talents, that's all.
You bring us down a whole octave.
In a good way.
[BOX CHIMING "POP GOES THE WEASEL"]
[BOX CHIMING "POP GOES THE WEASEL"]
MING MING: Hey, Foom Foom.
- No problem. - I appreciate it.
Buddy is killing me.
I already got Lum Lum and Choo Choo pulling doubles.
Well, if he hasn't figured out he's a human by now...
...I don't think he ever will.
...I don't think he ever will.
MING MING: You're just special.
[BUDDY SINGING DEEP NOTE]
You don't look so good, Buddy. Are you okay?
I'll be okay. I just need a glass of water.
Buddy.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
PAPA ELF: Buddy, are you okay?
I'm sorry, Papa.
Just need some alone time.
Buddy, I think we have to talk.
...had fallen in love when he was very young...
...with a beautiful girl named Susan Welles...
And how she had later passed away.
And most importantly, I told him where his father was.
ln a magical land called New York City.
My dad works there?
Empire State Building.
Hey, Buddy, wanna pick some snow berries?
