Gonzo, Rizzo, and Cherry were soon seen standing again.

"And a few moments later, dressed in his finest, Scrooge appeared on the streets of the city to wish 'Merry Christmas' to all the world." Gonzo narrated.

Scrooge came out to wish everybody a Merry Christmas, it was unexpected to the crowd, but not unwelcome, and he even wished a Merry Christmas to Cherry, Gonzo, and Rizzo.

"Gee, thanks!" Rizzo piped up from that.

"Everyone was out and about this fine morning and soon, he encountered two familiar faces." Cherry narrated as she got over her shock of Scrooge's perkiness.

Two familiar men from yesterday were soon seen surprised to see Scrooge.

"M-M-Mr. Scrooge!" Dr. Honeydew gasped as Beaker tried to hide like a turtle going into its shell.

"Pardon me, gentlemen, but about the charity donation you asked me for yesterday." Scrooge spoke up to the two.

"Oh, yes?" Dr. Honeydew replied.

"Put me down for..." Scrooge said before whispering the amount to him.

Dr. Honeydew and Beaker were both surprised by the amount they heard.

"That much?" Dr. Honeydew asked.

"Not a penny less," Scrooge replied. "A great many back-payments are included in it. I assure you."

"Oh, my goodness," Dr. Honeydew remarked from the shock. "I don't know what to say. I just wish there was something we could give you."

Beaker soon thought before he got an idea as he gave his scarf to Scrooge.

"A gift? A gift for me?" Scrooge asked.

Beaker nodded from that.

"Thank you," Scrooge said as he accepted the scarf before he soon wore it around his neck. "Thank you 50 times and a Merry Christmas."

"Here's your turkey, Mr. Scrooge." The rabbit smiled as he carried over the prized turkey.

"Follow me, lad." Scrooge replied.

The rabbit looked very happy of that before he followed after the rich man with the turkey.

"With a thankful heart, With an endless joy, With a growing family~," Scrooge sang happily through town. "Every girl and boy, Will be nephew and niece to me~"

"Nephew and niece to me~" The crowd sang back.

"Will bring love, hope and peace to me~" Scrooge sang as they came into the bakery as he helped them gather food.

"Love, hope and peace to me~" The crowd sang as they collected from Scrooge's help.

"Yes, and every night will end and every day will start a grateful prayer and a thankful heart~" Scrooge sang as he became generous for a change.

And where as he left the bakery, the people who worked there followed him outside.

"With an open smile and with open doors, I will bid you welcome, What is mine is yours, With a glass raised to toast your health~" Scrooge sang to the crowd happily.

"With a glass raised to toast your health~" The crowd sang back.

"And a promise to share the wealth~" Scrooge sang proudly.

"A promise to share the wealth~" The crowd sang back as they had many gifts to share with each other.

Drell came out of the schoolhouse with surprise as he seemed to live there as he felt surprised with what was going on with Scrooge. "Well, I'll be darned..." he said to himself. "Hmm... I should do something nice for that old coot... But what could I do other than give the children of the town their education?" he then pondered.
