Clock Operator: Only 4 hours till Christmas!
Narrator: Yes, the Grinch knew.
Tomorrow all the Who girls and boys would wake bright and early and rush for their toys.
Grinch: And then, all the noise!
All the noise, noise, noise, NOISE!!
They'll bang on tong-tinglers.
They'll blow their ?oo-?ounders.
They'll crash on jang-jinglers and bounce on boing-bounders!
Narrator: Then Whos young and old would sit down to a feast.
And they'll feast, and they'll feast.
Grinch: And they'll feast, feast, feast, feast!
They'll eat their Who pudding, and rare Who roast BEAST... which is something I just cannot stand in the least.
Oh, no. I'm speaking in rhyme! Aah! [drops to his knees] BLAST YOU, WHOS! [sobs]
Narrator: And the more the Grinch thought of what Christmas would bring, the more the Grinch thought...
Grinch: I must stop this whole thing.
Why, for year after year, I've put up with it now!
I must stop this Christmas from coming, but how? [gasps] I mean, "In what way?". [gags, disgusted; as he goes inside his cave, he sees Max dancing right behind the doghouse; to Max, snickering] Are you having a holly... jolly... Christmas? [record needle scratches] WRONG-O! [throws Max and his doghouse out. He peers over the edge at the dog-shaped hole in the snow as Max whimpers] Hmph! [he jumps to the hole, and picks up Max, who is covered in snow] If you're not going to help me, then you might as well--
Narrator: Then he got an idea; an awful idea. The Grinch got a wonderful... awful idea.
Grinch: I know... just what to do. [smiles sneakily and points his pointer finger up with a "Ding!" sound effect]
[scene cuts to the Grinch cutting a coat-shaped hole in the red fabric, and sewing the fabric]
Narrator: The Grinch laughed in his throat...
Grinch: Ha!
Narrator: ...And he made a quick Santy Claus hat and a coat.
[loud crunch]
Grinch: Oh-ho-ho! [sees his fingers sewn to the red fabric and faints in shock and pain; later, admires himself in the mirror, dressed in the finished outfit]
Narrator: And he chuckled and clucked at this great Grinchy trick.
Grinch: With this coat and this hat, I'll look just like Saint Nick! Ho, ho, ho! [singing] ? You're a mean one… Mr. Grinch! ?
? You really are a heel. ?
Jim Carrey: ? You're as cuddly as a cactus, and as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch! ?
You're a bad banana with a... ? greasy black peel! ? [scene cuts to the Grinch riding ziplines] ? Just face the music, you're a monster, Mr. Grinch. ?
Yes, you are!
Grinch: [singing] ? Your heart's an empty hoooooooole! ?
Jim Carrey: ? Your brain is full of spiders and you got garlic in your soul, Mr. Grinch. ?
Mmm…
? I wouldn't touch you with a… 39-and-a-half-foot pooooooooole! ?
[Max brings the Grinch a "5/8" spanner]
Grinch: I asked for 3/4, not 5/8. Stay focused! [The Grinch brings the 5/8 spanner back to Max.]
Jim Carrey: You know if you asked every Who's Who of Whoville…
? No one would deny it. ? [Grinch holds note as Max presses the button, making the Grinch launch faster, until it hits the "HIT HERE" sign, making Jim Carrey cough]
Grinch: Ow. [lifts his head up after a dummy crash test] Airbag's a little slow... [Airbags come out.] ...But that's what these tests are for! [Max barks, and the Grinch lets his head drop back down] ? You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch. You have termites in your smile. You have all the tender sweetness of a seasick crocodile, Mr. Grinch. Given the choice between you, I'd take the... seasick crocodile! ? [holds note while spinning around but yells and holds his mouth as he grunts.]
