Scrooged: Difference between revisions

* [[Drowning My Sorrows]]: Elliot tries to do this after losing his job, but a [[Roadside Wave]] wets the paper bag holding his booze and causes it to fall out. He tries again later, only for the Ghost of Christmas Past to drive by and steal his booze.

* [[Dumb Struck]]: Calvin hadn't spoken since he saw his father murdered five years earlier.

* [[Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas]]: Cross is driven to tears when he sees his mother in a vision of one of his first Christmases. The Ghost of Christmas Past had earlier mentioned even "Attila the Hun cried" when he saw his own mother.

{{quote| '''Ghost of Christmas Past''': Niagara Falls, "Frankie Angel." }}

* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Though Frank is a self-centered creep, there were some redeeming factors to him prior to the climax. Before he sees the ghost of Christmas past, he dumps water on a waiter, thinking he was on fire. {{spoiler|It was merely an illusion by the ghost to get him outside. The thought counts, though.}} Afterwards he makes some friends with the homeless people, even singing with them before the big "Bah Humbug parody." Lastly after seeing the Ghost of Christmas Present, he was devastated that one of the homeless men he met was found dead in the sewer he landed in. He even berates the guy for not staying at Operation Reachout where his ex-girlfriend Claire works.
