The Grinch
- Grinch: [trying to sneak into Whoville; in a strained whisper] This is the loudest snow I've ever heard in my life!
- Grinch: I specifically bought enough food to last me until January. How much emotional eating have I been doing?
- Grinch: It was me. I stole your Christmas. I stole it because I thought it would fix something from the past. But it didn't.
- Grinch: Beautiful, isn't it, Max? This, my little friend, is the Rein-horn. It perfectly recreates the mating call of the reindeer. Behold.
- [blows it, but instead attracts a goat]
- Grinch: Oh, hey there. Sorry, little goat. I was calling for a rein-
- [the goat suddenly screams at him and Max]
- Grinch: What was that? Scram! Skedaddle! Strange goat.
- [he and Max run off]
- Narrator: From the edge of his ledge, way up in the sky, The Grinch felt upset. But he wasn't sure why. It could have been Christmas. All that joy and such. Or something from his past that he just couldn't quite touch. But whatever it was, it made his heart moan. Though he was used to it now, this being alone. And now safe in his cave and apart from the fray, he reminded himself...
- Grinch: It is better this way.
- Grinch: [to Fred and Max, showing them a wrapped present] The present! THIS is our enemy! You WILL want to unwrap it.
- [mesmerized]
- Grinch: And... play with it.
- [Fred and Max exchange confused looks. The Grinch starts to slowly pull the present's ribbon, but regains his senses and tosses the present aside]
- Grinch: But you must NOT! If you can get past the present, the only obstacle left is...
- [holds out a Santa-shaped sugar cookie]
- Grinch: THE COOKIE. Look at it in all its red, sugary splendor.
- [Fred tries to grab the cookie with his mouth, but the Grinch takes it away]
- Grinch: No, no, no! Look at yourselves! Discipline! We must...
- [Fred snatches the cookie from the Grinch's hand and eats it. The Grinch sighs in disgust]
- Grinch: Resist.
