It's about Aladdin and the magic lamp.
:50:04
Please let me stay.
:50:07
No, Scrooge.
:50:19
And he said that Christmas was humbug.
As I live, he did.

:50:22
As if anything that gave excuse for this
could be humbug.

:50:25
- Your uncle should be ashamed.
- I'm sorry for him.

:50:28
I couldn't be angry with him if I tried.
After all, he punishes himself.

:50:32
And how does he do that, pray?
:50:33
- Well, he has money, hasn't he?
- Yes.

:50:35
And he makes no use of it, mark you,
no use of it whatsoever.

:50:38
Therefore, he's a far more pathetic
and unhappy case...

:50:40
than a man who has no money at all.
:50:42
QED, he punishes himself.
:50:47
Now, that's a wonderful idea.
:50:48
Tom here suggests that we play a game.
Now what shall it be?

:50:51
- Blindman's buff.
- Blindman's buff? Right.

:50:54
But first, I want you to drink a toast.
To my uncle Scrooge.

:50:56
It seems a shame to waste a toast
on a man like that.

:50:59
But, darling, think how happy
he makes everyone feel, by contrast.

:51:05
- To my uncle, Scrooge.
- To Uncle Scrooge.

:51:10
- Come along now, Tom. You're it.
- Come on, Tom.

:51:12
You'd best catch us.
:51:13
Tie it tight.
:51:15
- Are you sure you can see?
- Perfectly.

:51:17
That's good.
:51:19
One, two, three.
:51:36
Come on, quick.
Quick, he might catch you.

:51:44
Please, let me stay, just until they finish.
:51:47
But you don't like Christmas.
It's a time for fools.

:51:50
I won't go with you. I'm going to stay.
I'm going to stay, I tell you.

:51:54
Don't be a fool, man.
You don't like Christmas.

:51:58
But I do. I do like Christmas!
