Welcome to Christmasland,Wayne.

Whoa.

My little ones,how I've missed you all.

Come.

Say hello to your new friend, Wayne.

Hey, Wayne. Wanna play Stick the Blind?

No way, Jose!

Wayne's playingcops and robbers with me!

I'm the Sheriff. You're the bandit.

Hey, Wayne, I'm Annie.Hey, Wayne, I'm Amy.

Let's play carve the goose!Let's play carve the goose!

Now, now, there'll be plenty of time for all of it

after Millie gives him the grand tour.

She's not here, Mr. Manx.

Well, then,it's your lucky day, Wayne.

It's not every childthat gets a private tour

from Father Christmas himself.

Wow.Wow.

Let's get youa more exciting costume.

One of the many wonders of Christmasland

is that every childgets to be exactly who they are.

So, Wayne, who do you want to be?

My mom gave me these.

For my birthday.

Well, those are for bedtime.

There are no bedtimes here in Christmasland.

You get to stay up as late as you want,

playing games, riding rides.

At the peak of the Sleighcoaster,

you can almost reach out and touch the stars.

The very moon itself.

You could bea real-life astronaut.

How about that?

Oh.

Would you like a present?

It is Christmas Eve,after all.

Go ahead. Open it.

They're fora very special game.

But not until we makeyour arrival official.

I think you've morethan earned your place, Wayne.

Go ahead.

McQueen just doesn't feel rightanymore, does it?

That's okay.

This isn't homework.This is fun.

Well, I'll help you.

M...

...A...

N...

...X.

Manx. Wayne Manx.

Welcome home, my son.

Come on!

Hey.

Let me take a look at it. Let me take a

-Hey, hey, hey. -Jesus...

Just let me let me take a look at it.

Just tell me you can fix it,please.

I can fix the bike, baby.

I don't know about the rest.

Wayne did that.

I'm gonna find him and bring him back.

You just stay

Stay here with my dad.

I don't want him out here by himself.

Vic

He saved me so thatI could save our son, alright?

I don't want you to go alone.

Wayne's gonna need his father.

Wayne's gonna need you.

Ineed you.

You are the best manI have ever known, Lou Carmody.

And I am thankful every daythat Wayne has your heart.

I hope it'll help bring him back fr

Just kiss me.

Call Tabitha.

Tell her to keep the feds awayuntil I get Wayne out,

but be readyto call for backup when I do.

Look at me.

I don't know what kinda shapewe're gonna be in.

So...

Okay.

Alright. Okay.

Yeah.

I love you.

I love you, too.

I might know a back way into Christmasland,

a weak spot between worlds.

I'll take my Bridge through, find Wayne,

and get out before Manx even knows what happened.

You'll need these.I tried bombs.

They're useless against the Wraith.

Forget the Wraith.

We're gonna blow up Christmasland.

Christmasland is Charlie Manx's Inscape.

It is a reflection of his mind.

Who knows what kind of twisted shit

he's got lurking in there

Yeah, which is exactly whywe have to do this together.

Maggie No, Vic, no!

No more kids getting ripped awayfrom their families.

No more ornamentson his creepy trees.

I started hunting the Wraith before you,

so I'm going to finish itwith you.

We're gonna need to wire every one of those fucking bombs.

Come on.

You got it, Brat.

There you are.

Hello, Father.

When you were the only childin Christmasland,

I used to find you in hereall by your lonesome.

You wanted me to find youfriends to play with,

and I did.

I've provided for you,haven't I, Millie?

Made you happy?

Even tonight, I brought youa new friend Wayne.

What could've been moreimportant than welcoming him?

I have enough friends, Father.

I want to leave this place.

The last time I was here,you were begging me to stay.

Now you want to just upand leave our home?

I had another home.

In the real world.

It's true, isn't it?

This is our home, Millie.

Where we're safe.

We're not safe here.

Have you been playing outsidethe park walls, Millicent?

Liars end upon the naughty list.

I found a house.

In the woods.

I told you there is nothingout there,

so whatever you think you foundwas only a nightmare

Your nightmare.

It's there.

I'll show it to you.

You have to come get me.

Please, Mommy, you have to come quick.

Something's wrong with me!

No one has ever been able

to enter Christmasland except via my Wraith.

You know, I shouldn't besurprised by how big it is.

He's been building itfor decades.

Wayne's lost out there with a million other kids.

Okay.

Let's find him and get him out.

No other kids get in after today.

Drifters.

Wayne bit Lou.

Even if we find him

You're his mother. He'll know you.

Might be better if he didn't, after all I put him through.

You're here.Your kid's a friggin demon.

And you tore the fabricbetween reality and thought

to come get him.

That's more than most kids get.

That's not enough.

My mom tapped out whenI started dyeing my hair

and kissing girls.

You know, all this time that Wayne's been gone,

I've been trying to imagine some kind of life...

without him, and I ca

I can't.

Okay.Okay, we need to think.

Think about where he would be. Come on.

I mean, we went to Six Flags once,

and he loved the the flume ride and...

And the roller coasters.

The ones he was big enough to go on, anyway.

Uh...

And there was one, you know, it was in the dark,

and there were stars, like the ones that you just

you stick to the wall...

in a bedroom and stuff, planets.

Yeah.You know? He loved that.

But there was nothing he loved more than Fourth of July.

Fireworks.

We got plenty of those.

Alright.

Red light!

Punk kids in the library, works every time.

Good. Good.

Now.

How did you find this place?

The light was on.

Upstairs.

Come on.

Let me out!

The best sledding is beyond the grove by my house.

You ought to come by for a visit, Charlie.

There's something you need to see.

Someone.

Mom.

Cassie.

Come now, Charles.

You knowI've always been here.

In the back of your mind.

Nagging at you.

Like a song you can'tget out your head.

I think I'll lead this time.

Do you remember our first dance?
