Good Luck Charlie

Deck the halls with boughs of Holly.

Fa la la la la la la la la la.

'Tis the season...

Hi!

Hey, sounding good, Mrs. Duncan.

Oh! I know.

It's going to sound even better when I sing it tonight

at the annual Duncan Christmas Eve Talent Show.

Oh, mom, Spencer and I are singing too.

We even worked out a new Christmas song together.

Oh, that is so wonderful!

And so brave of you to sing the same night I do.

Well, we're off to Super Christmas Land.

Ooh, Super Christmas Land? What's that?

Oh, that's what Super Adventure Land calls itself,

for one week each year at Christmas time.

Last week it was Super Hanukkah Land.

Next week it's Super Kwanzaa Land.

Merry Christmas, everybody!

Oh, grandma's here!

- ( Sarcastically ) Yay. - Oh!

Oh oh!

Charlie, what do you have to say to grandma?

Good-bye.

Sorry, she's just excited.

We're off to have her very first picture taken with Santa.

I understand.

Okay, well, we gotta run, but we can't wait to see you later.

- Oh, good. - Okay.

- All right, bye. - Both: Bye.

Oh, Amy. It's nice to see you.

Oh, Linda, it's nice to see you.

Well.

The decorations look nice and whatnot.

Although that wreath is in the wrong place.

I like it there.

I'll fix it later.

Okay. Bob?

- Oh, my goodness! - Mom!

Is that my son or Hercules?

Oh, mom! Please!

Dropped some weight, got totally buff. Don't make a fuss.

So, how was the flight?

Oh, you know, the usual delays and whatnot.

But everybody on the plane loved the song that I'm going to sing at the Talent Show.

Deck the halls with boughs of Holly...

Oh, whoa whoa whoa whoa! Hang on there, grandma.

I'm singing "Deck The Halls".

Sweetheart, maybe you should clean the halls before you deck them.

I may deck something besides the halls.

Okay, stand down.

We both can't sing the song and I did come all the way from Phoenix.

She did come all the way from Phoenix.

- Well, it's my house. - It is her house.

- I gave birth to you. - I married you. Ba-bam!

Okay, fine!

Nobody sings it. That's my final decision.

Oh, that's your decision?

Who died and made you King of the Talent Show?

- Really! - Unbelievable.

Yay, Christmas.

Today's all burnt toast running late and dad jokes.

"Has anybody seen my left shoe?"

I close my eyes, take a bite grab a ride, laugh out loud.

There it is up on the roof.

I've been there, I survived.

So just take my advice.

Hang in there, baby things are crazy.

But I know your future's bright.

Hang in there, baby, there's no maybe.

Everything turns out all right.

Sure life is up and down.

But trust me, it comes back around.

You're gonna love who you turn out to be.

Hang in there, baby.

Hey, guys?

Uh, listen. I need a favor.

Well, since we're still in the pre-Christmas gotta-be-nice zone.

What can we do for you?

I need you to find out what your mom got me for Christmas.

- Why? - Well, because.

Every year, your mom and I, we make this agreement

not to spend too much on each other's presents but...

I never know what that means.

I would have thought "not spending too much"

is a phrase you're very familiar with.

Every year I wind up getting it wrong.

Oh, right, like the time she bought you really nice watch and you got her those...

- Uh, what were they called again? - Slocks.

They're not slippers, they're not socks.

They're Slocks.

That was the Christmas that mom kept slipping and falling.

Slocks... they're not just ugly, they're dangerous.

All right. Come on, guys. Hey...

When you were doing your present snooping, did you happen to see what your mom got me?

Dad, I'm older now. I don't do that anymore.

And thanks for the headphones!

Well, naughty can't help me. Let's try nice.

- Ooh, that's me! - Ha ha, PJ!

Come on, find out from your mom what she got me.

- All right, I'll talk to her. - All right, great.

She'll tell you anything. We all know you're her favorite.

He is?

Well, hey hey hey! I didn't say my favorite.

That would be Teddy, right?

No comment.

Oh, relax.

I'm sure you're in the top five.

I know that you're tired and you're hungry and your feet are cold,

but all this whining doesn't help.

But it's taking so long!

When do I get to see Santa?

Really soon, I promise.

Yeah, if that kid would ever get off Santa's lap.

He's been on there for like 10 minutes.

Yeah, what's taking him so long?

It should be sit, list, snap, go.

Sit, list, snap, go! How hard is that?

Santa can hear you, young lady.

Yeah, well, that's kind of the idea, Santa.

But seriously, you might want to cool it, all right?

- Carl's not the nicest guy. - Wait, you know Santa?

Yeah, from when we worked here.

I did a show with him. "The tribute to America".

He played Johnny Appleseed before he put on the weight.

Santa heard that too.

- Hey, mom. - Hey.

What you doing?

Welding.

Good good.

So, listen, I was thinking about what present to get for dad.

And I don't want to get him the same thing you did.

What did you get him again?

Did your dad send you down here to find out what I got him?

I'm not prepared for any follow-up questions.

I'm not going to tell you what I got him.

Then I won't ask again.

Am I still your favorite?

That's why you're my favorite.

Yes!

Well, then I'll let you get back to your welding.

- Good news, guys. - You found out what your mom's getting me?

No, but I confirmed I'm her favorite.

Well, there you go.

Gonna fail Christmas again.

Maybe I can help you.

You already bought mom a gift, right?

And I'm guessing it's somewhere in the Slocks area?

Actually, I got her a very special foam rug for the kitchen.

Something she can stand on when she's doing the dishes.

It's called the foot cush.

Oh, so you want the Slocks to seem like the good old days.

Wow, dad, you set the bar so low, I can't believe you went under it.

- Good one. - Thank you. I like yours too.

Guys, I'm just trying to be thoughtful.

Look, your mom saw a foot cushion in a store once,

and she said she might like one.

All right, so the point is you got the cheap gift covered.

Now all you have to do is buy mom a nice gift.

Buy her two gifts?

Exactly. Then hide them in different places and after you open mom's gift to you,

you'll know which one to give her.

Gabe! That's genius. Eh?

There you go. That's why you're my favorite.

This whole favorite thing is starting to lose all meaning.

Yes. We're next, Charlie.

Spencer: Teddy, look.

Teddy: Back in one hour?!

You can't do that.

Sorry, missy, I get a one hour break every four hours I work.

Union rules.

- What Union? - H.A.G...

The Holiday Actors Guild.

No no, wait. Come on, come on.

Look, we've been waiting here for two hours.

Okay, we're hungry, we're tired...

Take it up with H.A.G. now get out of my way.

You're not going anywhere, Santa.

Try and stop me.

Ha ha ha!

Whoops!

Oh, Teddy.

Yes!

Let's get the picture. Here, I'll hold Santa's arms down.

Step away from the fat man.

Well well well.

If it isn't Teddy Duncan.

Howdy, Sheriff.

Merry Christmas.

You redecorated. Place looks good.

We try to give it a holiday feel.

- Hey, honey. - Oh, Bob?

Um, I've decided I'm not going to sing "Deck The Halls" at the Talent Show.

Really? Oh, thank you.

Thank you for taking the high road and keeping the peace.

I'm going to do an impression instead.

- An impression? - Mmm.

Of a family member. Can you guess who?

"I flew all the way in from Phoenix and whatnot".
