04:29If you try to turn around, when you hear his icy sound, he's sure to disappear.
04:49But you know, then you know, Jack Frost is here.
04:59Once upon a snowflake, far, far away, in a distant time and place, there was a little
05:18town called January Junction.
05:21One late autumn day, about a month before Christmas, the pumpkin peasants were harvesting
05:27their crop.
05:28Papa, the load is too heavy for them.
05:32Oh, if only I had a team of horses instead of a dog and a duck.
05:39Who can afford horses?
05:42Who has money nowadays?
05:44I have, Mama.
05:46See?
05:47A copper kaputnik.
05:49Papa, how?
05:51I hid it from Kubla Kraus, so I'd have something to buy Christmas presents.
05:56You shouldn't take the chance.
05:58What good is one kaputnik?
06:00There's one kaputnik.
06:02It takes a hundred of them to make a penny.
06:04It's Kubla Kraus!
06:05It's the king of the Cossacks!
06:06Hide everybody!
06:07It's Kubla Kraus!
06:08It's the king of the Cossacks!
06:10Hide everybody!
06:11It's the king of the Cossacks!
06:12Hide everybody!
06:13Uncling Stumper!
06:14I smell like a kaputnik!
06:16Peasants!
06:17Give me that kaputnik!
06:19What kaputnik?
06:20Oh, beautiful king of the Cossacks!
06:38This kaputnik!
06:41A kaputnik saved is a kaputnik earned.
06:46A Caputnik saved is a Caputnik earned.
06:50Ha, ha, ha, ha!
06:52I'm playing Stomper!
06:59Oh, my last Caputnik.
07:02We'll have nothing for the holidays.
07:06Oh, Papa, soon you'll have money.
07:10Ice money.
07:12Not until Jack Frost comes.
07:16Listen, Papa, he must be about.
07:19Jack Frost is close.
07:21I can almost hear him.
07:39Now, the reason the folks of January Junction liked winter so much
07:43was because of that ice money Mama was talking about.
07:47See, Kubler-Krauss took all their real money for taxes.
07:52But when Jack Frost came...
07:58First thing he did was to make lots of pretty icicles.
08:01Then the folks took those icicles and sliced them up into ice coins.
08:14And soon everybody was rich with their, uh, frozen assets.
08:20Ha, ha, ha.
08:21A coin of phrase.
08:22Oops.
08:23Pardon me for the pun.
08:24Pardon me for the pun.
08:26And nobody was broke anymore.
08:28Nice system.
08:29Of course, when the warm weather came, everything melted and they had to start charging things again.
08:36And nobody had more fun than Jack Frost.
08:41Being invisible, he could move down close to all the humans and really be part of their cheer and joy.
08:49That's how he first met Elisa.
08:51Ha, ha, ha.
08:53Ha, ha, ha.
08:54Ha, ha, ha.
08:55Ha, ha.
08:56Ha, ha.
08:57Uh, Ha, ha.
08:58I don't wanna go after Pak theatres of that.
09:01Daughter, why are you headed toward the gate?
09:03I'm going out into the countryside.
09:04It's so beautiful with snow.
09:05Like a Christmas wonderland.
09:06Christmas is a month away.
09:08There must be another reason.
09:10Ha, ha, ha.
09:11Maybe I want to see Jack Frost work before anyone spoils it.
09:15You are so romantic, Elisa.
09:17Find yourself a good, solid husband and settle down.
09:23I will, when my knight in golden armor comes along.
09:28Knight? Knight?
09:31Aren't you in love with anybody yet?
09:34Only Jack Frost.
09:39I guess that's how it all started.
09:42From that moment on, Jack Frost began to think about being human.
09:49See, he thought Elisa really loved him.
09:53Jack was so lost in his daydreams that he didn't hear.
10:02Good shortcut, Flankstamper.
10:05The water's hard.
10:07Ha, ha, ha, ha.
10:09For him, Flankstamper.
10:12On, ha, ha, ha, ha.
10:15But the weight of the iron horse and the heat of its boiler
10:19caused the ice to break up.
10:22Oh, no.
10:23Help!
10:25Somebody!
10:27Help!
10:29Help!
10:31Oh, that was fun.
10:49Jack Frost, not only are you a magician, you're a hero.
10:54Well, when he heard himself called a hero, Jack Frost made up his mind.
11:01He knew he just had to be human.
11:05And that made him happy and sad at the same time.
11:13And so, he headed straight up toward his home in the sky.
11:18The happiness of being me is not what it's cracked up to be.
11:25It's lonely being one of a kind.
11:30With all the notoriety, the fame that nature gave to me.
11:39It's lonely being one of a kind.
11:43What's home to Jack Frost?
11:48Pardon me, but I think I'd better explain a few things.
11:53Well, you all know this is a weather map.
11:57Instead of low-pressure areas and cold fronts and moisture-laden winds,
12:02try to think of a snowstorm as a great kingdom of the winter clouds.
12:09And the ruler of all this wonder is Father Winter himself.
12:21Of course, he has lots of assistance.
12:23Not just Jack Frost.
12:25Snip the Snowflake Maker, for instance.
12:28Every single snowflake that ever falls anywhere is designed by Snip.
12:36And no two are alike.
12:41Is this Snip?
12:42Of course this is Snip.
12:44Who else would be answering Snip's phone?
12:46I need ten million for Minneapolis.
12:48Ten million for Minneapolis?
12:50Oh.
12:52But I gotta finish that Moscow order.
12:54Not to mention Alaska, Mount Fuji, and January Junction.
13:00So, when do you need them?
13:02Tomorrow, tomorrow.
13:03All right.
13:04You'll have them.
13:05You'll have them.
13:06Phew.
13:07A little flurry, he calls it.
13:12Then there's the snow gypsies.
13:14Oh, there's thousands of them.
13:18See, each flake has to be carefully flipped so that it lands exactly where Father Winter wants it.
13:28And it's all up to the little flake flippin' snow gypsies.
13:35Every so often, Snip would make an extra special snowflake.
13:40Just perfect for the Christmas snow.
13:43Holly!
13:45White Christmas snow got special treatment.
13:50And Holly, the holiday snowflake gypsy, saw that each flake was kept safe and cold until December the 24th.
14:00Then there's the sweet sisters.
14:04And the hail fellow, who packs all the hailstones to be shipped off to the summer.
14:13Hail, hail fellow!
14:17Salutations, sleet sisters!
14:21Oh, greetings, snow gypsies!
14:24Jack Frost, what are you doing back?
14:28It's not even Christmas.
14:30Don't worry, Snip.
14:31I've got everything frosted down there.
14:34Holly's snowflakes won't melt.
14:36But you shouldn't be up here now.
14:38Father Winter will be very angry.
14:40I can't help that.
14:42I won't ask him a favor.
14:44You're gonna bother Father Winter with favors?
14:47R-right in the middle of the busy season?
14:50Snip, I want to be, uh, human.
14:54Human?
14:55Why, Jack?
14:57I...
14:58I have my reasons.
15:00You mustn't let Father Winter find out.
15:03I have already found out.
15:14Well, you can bet your galoshes that when Father Winter heard about Jack Frost wanting to be human, he was angry.
15:29In fact, he was as mad as a blizzard.
15:32Outright insubordination.
15:36If I am insubordinate, sir, it was you who made me so.
15:40Me?
15:41How?
15:42I'm the only one you sent down among the humans.
15:47Bring joy to their Januaries.
15:49Make their Christmases whiter, you ordered.
15:53But when I try to share their joy, they can't hear or see me.
15:58Why can't I be part of them?
16:01Because you'd be a stranger to their ways.
16:04Nobody down there really wants to know Jack Frost.
16:08One person does.
16:10Magician, she calls me.
16:13Hero.
16:15Father Winter, grant my dream come true.
16:21Oh, time.
16:24Give me time to consider your request.
16:28A century or two.
16:30That will be too late.
16:33I'd like to be like everyone I see.
16:40Not special.
16:42Just an ordinary guy.
16:45Who falls in love and leads the simple life.
16:54At least I'd like to have the chance to try.
17:00The happiness of being me is not what it's cracked up to be.
17:07It's lonely being one of a kind.
17:13It's lonely being one of a kind.
17:19If you feel so lonely, Jack, I will have to grant your wish.
17:29You may become human.
17:31Temporarily.
17:33I will give you a winter of humanity.
17:36And if by the first sign of spring you have accumulated the basic human essentials.
17:42A house to shelter you.
17:44A horse to bear you.
17:46A bag of gold to sustain you.
17:49And a wife to make it all worth the while.
17:52Then you will be truly human and may stay so with my blessing forever.
18:02Oh, that's some proposition.
18:05No trouble at all, Snip.
18:07Well, I'm off.
18:09Wait, Jack.
18:10Take these, please.
18:12Your scissors?
18:13But you need them.
18:15If I need, I got a whole drawer full.
18:19Something to remember me by.
18:21Thank you, Snip.
18:23And don't worry.
18:24I'll never forget you.
18:26Farewell, old friend.
18:29And Jack Frost was on his way.
18:32As he fell back down, he could suddenly feel human things for the first time.
18:38What?
18:39A heartbeat.
18:42An itchy nose.
18:45It's wonderful.
18:51Who said that?
18:54I have words now.
18:57I think I almost spoke one.
18:59I have bones now.
19:02I think I almost broke one.
19:04You're very clumsy on ice.
19:09Clumsy on ice?
19:12Do you know who I am?
19:14Well, you're certainly not my golden knight.
19:19You're right.
19:21I am clumsy.
19:23Even though you're not a knight, you are very nice.
19:27What's your name?
19:28Jack for Oops.
19:30Jack Oops?
19:32No.
19:33Jack.
19:34Snip.
19:35I'm Jack Snip, the tailor.
19:36See?
19:37A tailor.
19:38We need a tailor in town.
19:40Well, I need a town to tailor in.
19:43Well, why don't you stay in January Junction?
19:46Why don't I stay in January Junction?
19:50This way.
19:51I'll race you.
19:56He's falling all over himself.
19:58Jack Frost slipping on ice?
20:01What's the world coming to?
20:03Phew.
20:04Humans are never as graceful as Sprites.
20:07Mark my words, Holly.
20:09He's gonna be in big trouble.
20:11We must not allow harm to come to Jack Frost.
20:14Snip.
20:15Holly.
20:16Therefore, you will both become human until the spring.
20:22Now, back in town, Alicia's folks invited Jack Frost.
20:27Uh, pardon me.
20:28Jack Snip to dinner.
20:31Eat hearty and curse Kubla Kraus.
20:35Papa.
20:36On Christmas, sometimes we share a bologna sandwich.
20:41Without the bologna, of course.
20:43Papa, Mr. Snip has no place to sleep.
20:47May he stay the night in the attic?
20:49Why not?
20:51I'll find a house in the morning.
20:53It's very important I find a house.
20:55Oh, but there are no empty houses in January Junction, Mr. Snip.
21:00Then I'll build one.
21:02With what?
21:04Kubla Kraus owns all the timber and the brick.
21:08But I've got to get a house.
21:10A horse, a bag of gold, and...
21:12Kubla Kraus owns the only horse and all the gold.
21:18The Cossack King.
21:21But even the Cossacks couldn't stand him.
21:24So, they all left.
21:26Now he lives alone in his castle, high on miserable mountain.
21:32I'm Kubla Kraus.
21:36I'm king of all the Cossacks.
21:40But there are no Cossacks to be king of.
21:45There's the rob.
21:47There's the rob.
21:49There's the rob.
21:52I'm Kubla Kraus.
21:54I could have been a pharaoh.
21:57But there are no pyramids around here.
22:01There's the rob.
22:02There's the rob.
22:05There's the rob.
22:07There's the rob.
22:10Rob-a-dub-a-dub-a-dub-a-rob.
22:14I rule with an iron hand.
22:18I get whatever I demand.
22:24I own the people and the land.
22:29So why is it I'm not happy?
22:32I don't understand.
22:39I'm Kubla Kraus.
22:41I could have been a Raja.
22:44But there are no elephants around here.
22:48There's the rob.
22:49There's the rob.
22:50There's the rob.
22:52There's the rob.
22:54I'm Kubla Kraus.
22:56I could have been a Shogun.
22:59But there are no samurai around here.
23:03There's the rob.
23:04There's the rob.
23:06There's the rob.
23:09There's the rob.
23:13Rob-a-dub-a-dub-a-dub-a-rob.
23:15There's the rob.
23:17There's the rob.
23:20There's the rob.
23:23Rob-a-dub-a-dub-a-dub-a-rob.
23:26Jack Frost found out that no humans or animals would live with Kubla Kraus.
23:31So the mean and evil old Kazakh king had to make artificial ones out of iron.
23:39There was Clang Stumper, who ran by steam.
23:44And Fetch Kvetch, the butler, who ran by clockwork.
23:53And there was his army of knights in grimy armor.
23:57Knute, knick, knormon, knathan, and all the rest of them.
24:03Each lifeless with a motive for a heart.
24:06But very mean and knasty.
24:13Why, even the mice were artificial.
24:17And then there was Dummy.
24:23Hello, Dummy.
24:26Hello, Kubla.
24:28Gee, it's well being here with you.
24:31Dummy, Dummy on my knee, who is handsome as can be?
24:36You are Kubla.
24:38And Dummy, who is brave and strong and nice?
24:42You are Kubla.
24:45Nice, Dummy.
24:49Oh, it is so good to be loved.
24:55Kubla Kraus has got to be overthrown.
25:03Oh, hello.
25:05Hello, nice lady.
25:06You have a warm room, maybe, for two lost strangers?
25:11I don't believe it.
25:13These are my friends.
25:15This is Holly.
25:17How do, please?
25:19What is she, an almost?
25:22She's even too small to be one of Santa's elves.
25:26Oh, Holly is a gypsy.
25:29A gypsy princess.
25:31Angered the magic gypsy baron and he made her tiny.
25:36Oh, boy.
25:38And this is Sni...
25:40No, no.
25:41Oops.
25:43Another oops?
25:45Fernando...
25:47Leonardi...
25:49Kratsky...
25:51That's me.
25:52What?
25:54It's all I could think of.
25:56Well, whoever.
25:58Come on in.
25:59Sit comfortable and eat hearty.
26:01Mama!
26:03Shell next week's pee and make soup.
26:04You won't regret this, sir.
26:07With my friends at my side, I know Kubla Krause's days are numbered.
26:13First thing tomorrow, we pay a little visit to the Cossack King.
26:16Well, Jack Frost kept his word.
26:17The next morning, he set out with his friends to climb Miserable Mountain.
26:25But that mountain was like a pyramid of ice.
26:26He's sleeping again.
26:27Fun, huh, dummy?
26:28It's great fun, Kubla.
26:29Hey.
26:30Who is that girl?
26:31Oh, she is beautiful.
26:32It's great fun, Kubla.
26:33Hey.
26:34Hey.
26:35Who is that girl?
26:36Oh, she is beautiful.
26:37I will woo her and win her for my wife.
26:38The next morning, he set out with his friends to climb Miserable Mountain.
26:41But that mountain was like a pyramid of ice.
26:42But that mountain was like a pyramid of ice.
26:44He's sleeping again.
26:45Fun, huh, dummy?
26:46It's great fun, Kubla.
26:47Hey.
26:48Who is that girl?
26:49Oh, she is beautiful.
26:50I will woo her and win her for my wife.
26:52She is beautiful, and therefore I will woo her.
26:54How can you woo her?
26:57She doesn't like me.
26:59I will woo her and win her for my wife.
27:04She is beautiful, and therefore I will woo her.
27:11How can you woo her?
27:14She doesn't like you.
27:18She is a woman, and therefore I will win her.
27:24How can you win her?
27:27She doesn't like you.
27:31I will win her and woo her.
27:38I will.
27:40You won't.
27:41I can.
27:43You can.
27:44You can.
27:45We'll see.
27:55Well, they just had to give up.
27:58He set up his tailor shop in the house of Alicia's Papa.
28:03Snip and Holly were his assistants.
28:07And on the day before Christmas...
28:11Merry Christmas!
28:13Sir Ravenel!
28:15I'm looking for Jack Snip.
28:17The tailor?
28:18Uh, customer?
28:19Sir Ravenel.
28:20Right, fellow.
28:21He's come back.
28:23Oh, the knight in golden armor.
28:26The who in which?
28:28He left town as a child and joined King Arthur.
28:32After all these years, I'm home for the holidays.
28:35And I need a tailor.
28:36Well, Sir Ravenel, I can't mend armor.
28:40It's my cape that needs mending.
28:42I'm certain Mr. Snip will consider it an honor.
28:46I'll call for you.
28:48I mean, for my cape tomorrow.
28:51And Merry Christmas to you all.
28:54And the next day was a Merry Christmas.
28:59For poor as they were, the folks of January Junction always gave wonderful presents.
29:06Dream presents, they called them.
29:09One person gave it to another.
29:12And the person who got it dreamed...
29:15Or made believe it was...
29:18It was just what they always wanted.
29:21You shouldn't have, you didn't.
29:23Oh, my. Oh, my.
29:25I really don't deserve it.
29:27I think I'll cry.
29:29It's just what I always wanted.
29:31It's perfectly right.
29:33It's just what I always wanted.
29:35A Christmas delight.
29:37It's just what I always wanted.
29:39It's perfectly right.
29:41It's just what I always wanted.
29:43A Christmas delight.
29:45I hope you wouldn't bother.
29:50Oh, my. Oh, my.
29:52I'll use it every morning.
29:54I think I'll cry.
29:56It's just what I always wanted.
29:58It's perfectly right.
30:00It's just what I always wanted.
30:02A Christmas delight.
30:04It's just what she always wanted.
30:06A Christmas delight.
30:08It's just what she always wanted.
30:09It's just what she always wanted.
30:11A Christmas delight.
30:12It's absolutely charming.
30:14Oh, my. Oh, my.
30:16The color really suits me.
30:18I think I'll cry.
30:20It's just what I always wanted.
30:22It's perfectly right.
30:24It's just what I always wanted.
30:26A Christmas delight.
30:28It's just what I always wanted.
30:29It's just what I always wanted.
30:30A Christmas delight.
30:31It's just what she always wanted, a Christmas delight.
30:40It's simply too expensive, oh my, oh my.
30:44I'll treasure it forever, I think I'll cry.
30:48It's just what I always wanted, it's perfectly right.
30:52It's just what I always wanted, a Christmas delight.
30:56It's just what we always wanted, it's perfectly right.
31:00It's just what we always wanted, a Christmas delight.
31:11A magic wand.
31:13No, it's a real present.
31:16Real?
31:18A rose, a beautiful red rose.
31:23Would you accompany me to the Christmas dance tonight?
31:26I'd, I'd, I'd love to.
31:30I'll call for you at eight, fair lady.
31:35Hello.
31:37Why, hello, little fellow.
31:39And how is the New Year's bride?
31:42I'm not a New Year's bride.
31:44That's what you think.
31:46He is the handsomest husband a girl could wish for.
31:56His eyes are like fools.
31:58His lips like rosebuds.
32:01But why don't you speak for yourself, Kubla?
32:05Good idea, Domi.
32:07My eyes are like fools.
32:12My leaves are like rosebuds.
32:16Now, Elisa was pretty lucky.
32:19The family duck just happened to be paying a Christmas visit
32:22to some wild relatives in the forest.
32:28Captured by Kubla Krauss?
32:30We've got to save her.
32:31Come on, everybody!
32:32And when Charaveno found out what the trouble was?
32:41Faster! Faster!
32:57Elisa!
33:00I think I can make it.
33:02Ah, Snip, I can't do anything right as a human.
33:11Maybe on the other side, the slope doesn't slip.
33:14We can try.
33:23Canute, canique, canate, you're fired.
33:29What a bunch of canati!
33:31Oh, there, there, Elisa.
33:39Oh, Sarawo and Elisa wounded.
33:43Those terrible canates!
33:46Quick, we've got to get him home.
33:49And meanwhile, Jack Frost and Snip had gotten themselves captured.
33:58Oh, I will make the whole town pay.
34:03What will you do, Kubla?
34:06I will send 1,000 canites to destroy the town and everything in it.
34:13998.
34:14Oh, 999.
34:15Oh, he's right.
34:151,000.
34:16Oh, he's right.
34:211,000!
34:21Oh, he's right.
34:231,000.
34:25A good snowstorm would stop them in the tracks.
34:28I mean, a real once-in-a-lifetime blizzard.
34:34How, Jack? How?
34:36I tried to snip a snowflake the other day,
34:38just for old time's sake.
34:40It turned out to be a doily for the table.
34:44I'll whistle up a winter.
34:46See? Nothing.
34:52You might as well be making bird calls.
34:55Then there's only one way.
34:58Father Winter!
35:01Jack, you don't mean...
35:07Jack Frost had given up his humanity
35:11to save the humans we have come to love so much.
35:21And to stop Kublai Krause,
35:24he was gonna whistle up the worst winter the world had ever known.
35:30Now, the minute Jack Frost stopped being human,
35:40he became his old self again.
35:43Pardon me.
35:45Uh, pardon me.
35:47I mean his old shadow again.
35:51And there was no more need for Sniff to be human.
35:55He and Holly had work to do up in the Kingdom of the Winter Clouds.
36:06And now Jack Frost could really whistle up a winter.
36:10The Christmas blizzard of all time.
36:25Well, sir, Jack Frost kept whistling,
36:46and that snow kept falling for five whole weeks.
36:50By the first of February,
36:53the entire mountain was buried.
36:57Jack aimed that storm pretty well
36:59because only Kublai's castle was buried.
37:03Why, in January Junction,
37:06they were talking about an early spring.
37:10I'll be well again by springtime,
37:13thanks to you.
37:15We'll be wed when the first blossom shows.
37:18Yes.
37:20It will be wonderful.
37:23Only I wish...
37:25What is it, Elisa?
37:26Still Jack Sniff?
37:29I want him to be there.
37:31I don't know why.
37:33I only knew him for those few weeks,
37:35yet it seemed like I knew him all my life.
37:38He was such a sweet, good little friend.
37:41What happened to him?
37:42Suddenly, the snow stopped falling.
37:47Jack Frost whistled for more winter, but nothing came.
37:53But, sir, spring can't come early.
37:56I've got to keep that castle snowbound.
37:59Oh, please, sir, don't take winter away.
38:01Not yet.
38:03It's not up to me, Jack Frost.
38:05I take my orders from nature.
38:08When she gives me a certain sign,
38:10I know it's my time to leave.
38:13What sign, sir?
38:15The awakening of a tiny animal from his hibernation.
38:19His long winter's nap.
38:21I refer to a little groundhog.
38:24At this very moment, he is starting to awaken.
38:27Very soon, he will leave his home.
38:31If he stays outside and is not frightened by his shadow,
38:37that will be my sign to move on.
38:41But if his shadow frightens him?
38:44Six more weeks of winter.
38:48Well, Jack Frost looked up and realized
38:52that the clouds hid the sun.
38:53There could never be a shadow that day.
38:58At least, not a real shadow.
39:02Of course, that didn't eliminate magic shadows.
39:07Hey, I've got a day named after me.
39:11February 2.
39:14That's the day that I decide
39:18what the weather's gonna do.
39:20When I climb out of my burrow
39:25from my cozy little nest.
39:29If I see my shadow following,
39:33there'll be six more weeks of winter's best.
39:41I've got a day named after me.
39:44February 2.
39:45February 2.
39:47Say, that's the day that I decide
39:51what the weather's gonna do.
39:55It's an easy occupation.
39:58I'm only working once a year.
40:02I'm a living weather station.
40:06Telling everyone if spring is near.
40:09I've got a day named after me.
40:10February 2.
40:11I've got a day named after me.
40:13February 2.
40:14That's the day that I decide
40:15what the weather's gonna do.
40:17What the weather's gonna do.
40:18February 2.
40:19February 2.
40:21That's the day that I decide
40:24what the weather's gonna do.
40:28What the weather's gonna do.
40:32I've got a day named after me.
40:36February 2.
40:41February 2.
40:45Oh, no!
40:52Just my shadow.
40:55What pinched me with those cold fingers?
41:01Ow!
41:03Hey, Liz!
41:11Pardon me!
41:14He returned to his hole?
41:17Well, then I suppose spring isn't coming.
41:21More winter, everyone!
41:24More winter!
41:31Well, Jack Frost left,
41:33and I went back to bed for six weeks.
41:36I liked the extra snooze so much,
41:39I've been letting him scare me to this very day.
41:44Pardon me?
41:46Oh, the rest of the story.
41:48Well, by and by, nature caught on,
41:52and six weeks later,
41:54she started giving Father Winter some other signs.
41:57There can be no argument.
42:02Winter will end by noon today.
42:06But I can't just let January Junction be destroyed.
42:10Let me be human again.
42:12You promised me humanity until spring comes.
42:17Very well, Jack Frost.
42:20You have until 12 noon.
42:22And if you wish to remain human,
42:27you have one hour to get your house,
42:30horse, bag of gold, and wife.
42:33But first, I've got to stop Kubla.
42:36Somehow.
42:38Gee, the snow's half-melted already.
42:42Dummy, look.
42:44We're melting.
42:45Soon I will destroy the town and get my bride.
42:50Oh, what happiness!
42:52What joy!
42:53What glee!
42:54The melling snow collapsed the rotting roof,
43:05and Kubla was knocked unconscious.
43:09Now I know what to do.
43:12Right, Dummy?
43:14Anything you say, Jack Frost?
43:17He could imitate Kubla's Dummy voice perfectly.
43:22And what's more, Jack Frost didn't move his lips.
43:26Hold you K'nites down there!
43:29Hold!
43:30Now, those K'nites thought Kubla was doing the talking for Dummy.
43:35So they obeyed.
43:37No time to use the secret passage.
43:40Down the mountainside!
43:42Forward, march!
43:44And the double!
43:47Of course that mountain was still slippery as ever,
43:50and once they hit those ice slopes,
43:52down they went!
43:53They landed on the others down below,
43:56and soon the valley was filled to the top
43:58with a junk heap of 10,000 K'nites!
44:01Blast you!
44:06Who you like best?
44:07Me or Frost?
44:10Oh, you Kubla!
44:12He's got cool fingers.
44:14Let's get him!
44:17I guess this counts as a house.
44:21Uh-oh!
44:22I guess I have a horse, too!
44:23Look!
44:24Gold!
44:25Enough for a hundred bags!
44:27To stay human, Jack Frost needed one more thing.
44:30And he only had till noon to make Elisa his wife.
44:34Yes, sir, that town's troubles were over for good.
44:39Jack Frost was sure everything would be happy ever after.
44:42Until...
44:43You want my daughter's handy marriage?
44:44You want my daughter's handy marriage?
44:49I only have one daughter.
44:50And, well, look for yourself.
44:52You want my daughter's handy marriage?
44:54I only have one daughter.
44:55And, well, look for yourself.
44:56And would you believe a night for a son-in-law?
45:00The ceremony is at 12 noon.
45:01At the first stroke of spring.
45:02And, yes, sir.
45:03Yes, sir, that town's troubles were over for good.
45:04Jack Frost was sure everything would be happy ever after.
45:07Until...
45:08You want my daughter's handy marriage?
45:11I only have one daughter.
45:14And, well, look for yourself.
45:17And would you believe a night for a son-in-law?
45:23The ceremony is at 12 noon.
45:26At the first stroke of spring.
45:29You're invited, kid.
45:32I thought she loved me.
45:35I never heard her say she loved anyone before Sir Ravenel.
45:40Except Jack Frost.
45:42She's just a dream.
45:44But she'll always love Jack Frost.
45:47But, no, I never heard her say she loved you.
45:52Jack Snip.
45:5712 noon.
45:59The big moment.
46:01Spring is here.
46:03Hey, where did that little tailor go?
46:18What was that?
46:20An old friend kissed the bride.
46:23Hey, run!
46:24It wouldn't be winter without you.
46:27If you try to turn around.
46:29When you hear his icy sound.
46:31He's sure to disappear.
46:33But you know.
46:34Yes, you know.
46:35Then you know.
46:36Jack Frost is here.
46:38And that's the story of Jack Frost.
46:43Jack Frost.
46:44Oh.
46:45Oh.
46:46Oh.
46:47Oh.
46:48Jack Frost.
46:49Jack Frost
47:15Oh, pardon me.
47:21Bye.
