Grinch:
[as Max sneezes] Gesundheit.

Stomach:
Oh, no.

[This causes Cindy Lou to scream, and the Grinch screams back; drops down to the ground and snorts.]

Cindy:
You're the, the, the, the–-

Grinch:
[imitating Cindy Lou Who] "The, the, the, the…" [normal voice; loudly] THE GRINCH!

Cindy:
Aah! [falls down a mail shaft] Help!

Grinch:
Well...

Cindy:
Help!

Grinch:
...that worked out nicely.

Cindy:
Help! [big stamp stamps fragile on present; muffled] Help me! Somebody!

Grinch:
[to Max] Max, let's go. Our work here is finished. [chomps] Sheesh!

Cindy:
Help me! Please! Help!

Grinch:
[sees Max biting his own cloak] That is not a chew toy! Stop it, Max! Get that out of your mouth! You have no idea where it's been!

[Cindy screams, and a whistle blows]

Cindy:
Help!

Grinch:
[scowls; annoyed] Ohhh... Bleeding hearts of the world, UNITE!

Cindy:
Help! Help!

Grinch:
[saves Cindy] There. [takes back his goofy mask] Give me that! DON'T YOU KNOW YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO TAKE THINGS THAT DON'T BELONG TO YOU?! WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU, YOU SOME KIND OF WILD ANIMAL?! HUH?!

Cindy:
[shaking her head] Uh-uh.

Grinch:
[to Max] Let's go. [heads to the exit]

Cindy:
Thanks for saving me.

Grinch:
[screeches to a stop, fingers scrape against glass, turns around angrily] Saving you? Is that what you think I was doing?

Cindy:
[nods] Uh-huh.

Grinch:
[wags finger] Wrong-o. [grabs wrapping paper] I merely noticed that you were improperly packaged, my dear! [begins wrapping Cindy Lou wildly in wrapping paper] DRAT! Hold still! [stops wrapping, to Max] Max, pick out a bow! [resumes wrapping Cindy Lou in wrapping paper, stops] Can I use your finger for a second?

Cindy:
Hello? Hello!

Grinch:
[puts on his mask] Ow.

Lou Lou Who:
[enters back room] Cindy?

Cindy:
Dad. [Lou sees her covered in gift wrapping that the Grinch wrapped her up with earlier] Daddy! Daddy!

Lou Lou Who:
What the hey? Honey? Cindy?

Cindy:
[removes gift wrapping] Dad, it was amazing!

Lou:
You've been practicing your Christmas wrapping. Honey, I'm so proud of you.

Cindy:
Uh-- Oh. Well--

Lou:
Now that's holiday!

Narrator:
Sweet Cindy Lou didn't know what to do. In her head, a conflict or 2; "If the Grinch was so bad, then why did he save me? Maybe he wasn't so bad."

Lou:
Come on, let's go home.

Narrator:
"Maybe. Just maybe."
