Welcome to the annual Wintery Wonderland
tree-topping ceremony, a tradition that dates back
to when my great-great-grandfather
settled this town 3 1/2 years ago.
Aww. Thanks, sweetie.
Now, if I may have the official Wintery Wonderland tree topper.

Oh, I'm so excited.
I can't believe we get to participate
in such a magical ceremony.
Magical? The snow is fake.
It's the middle of July, and hello!
Where are the presents,
AKA the best part of the holidays?
Wintery Wonderland is about more than presents!
Nobody asked you, snowball.
I'm Snowy, the Wintery Wonderland snowball mascot,
and you're holding up the ceremony.
The passing of the tree topper
is about the act of giving, not getting.
All I'm getting is B-O-R-D.
Don't be such a grump.
This place celebrates everything I love
about the holidays --
carolers, decorations, ugly sweaters.
Max: Ooh, they're almost to the tree.

The feels!
Am I right, Ben? Ben?
The feels. Hey!
Are all these festivities totally lost on you?
No. This town is all about the holidays,
and the most important thing about the holidays
are the presents.
Ben, the spirit of the holiday
is way more important than getting stuff.
You can keep your spirit.
I'm a superhero, and I want my super toys.
Were you aware that this town has seven toy stores?
There are five on this one street alone!
Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have a lot of toys I need to write down
on Ben's Holiday Want List.

The epicenter of outpouring emotion
appears to be coming from that small village ahead.
Very peculiar.
Such levels of positive emotion
appear to be uncommon among large groups of humans.
If it could be polarized to a negative emotion,
the harvest could replenish our batteries.
Our reserves are reaching dangerous levels.
[ Beeping ]
We should make everyone feel bad
so we can collect their negative energy.
He literally just said that.
You promised I could say the evil plan this time.
You got to say it last time.
Did not. Did so.
Did -- Enough.
You can start the assault on the town.
Will that be satisfactory?
Yes.

It's those crazy emo robots again.
The Weatherheads?
I'll show those robo-duds some holid-alien spirit.
Oh, come on! The word play wasn't that bad!
Our concentration of emotion could be emanating
from these whimsical establishments.
Their annihilation will be a total bummer.
For once, I agree with you.

Gwen, I need you to do something uber important.
Anything.
Could you hold on to this?
I don't want to risk it getting damaged
'cause I need to make sure I get everything on it --
uh, the toys. You know.
Now, that's the holiday spirit!
Back to the bad guys.
A fuzzy creature of enormous stature.
Is it meant to be terrifying or adorable?
As I have no emotions, I obviously cannot tell.
Destroy it to be safe.
[ Grunts ] Leave the teddy bear alone!
You? This is not a nice surprise.
Step away from the toys.
Your affection for these novelties is encouraging.
Their destruction would be quite fulfilling
if I felt emotions.
[ Grunts ]
I don't think you're getting the holiday spirit.
Let me deliver it.
[ Groans ]
If the others in this town
share his devotion to these trinkets...
Their destruction would generate an infinite amount of power.
I'll go in first and scout the area.
Right. [ Screaming ]
The sheer amount of toys would be overwhelming
if I were not an unfeeling automaton.
How useless. Agreed.
These trinkets would in no way fulfill any empty longing
I may have for a childhood.
They will make satisfactory explosives.

I'll let the teddy bear slide,
but nobody -- I mean nobody --
messes with my Sumo Slammers!

more emotionally attached to each other
rather than the material things.
Perhaps we should redirect our attention.
Hey, I'm a holiday tree.

The holiday spirit isn't about the stuff.

The list I had of all the stuff I want?
I thought of a couple other things I want to put on it.
