The Ghosts and Scrooge fly through time to the First Annual McDuck Enterprises Christmas Party. His apparent hatred of Christmas is all an act to keep this to himself, except for his passionate dislike of Santa Claus he does not explain why this is. Scrooge and the Ghosts have an annual tradition of time-traveling to history's greatest Christmas parties every Christmas Eve, the one time Scrooge takes a break from all his other responsibilities.
Scrooge initially pretends to fight the ghosts but eventually admits that the spirits are old acquaintances of his, the Ghost of Christmas Past, Ghost of Christmas Present, and Ghost of Christmas Future. Once Dewey is alone again, he spots a mysterious green light and follows it to Scrooge's study, where he finds his great-uncle surrounded by three strange spirits. Donald walks in and invites the boy to join in the family celebration, but Dewey maintains that he wants to be by himself. In the triplets' bedroom, Dewey is alone, wistfully staring at an old picture of his mother and wishing her a merry Christmas. However, true to his name, Scrooge hates every second of "crass commercialism, empty sentiment, and all the trappings of the holiday." After destroying an animatronic Santa Claus and, to Webby's delight, declaring "Bah, humbug!", he heads to his room.
It's Christmas Eve in McDuck Manor, and Donald, Huey, Louie, Webby, and Duckworth are all getting into the spirit of the season. Meanwhile, time-lost Dewey teams up with young Donald Duck to find his mom on Christmas. In a nod to “Mickey’s Christmas Carol,” Scrooge avoids the pressures of the holidays by traveling back in time with a trio of fun-loving ghosts to crash history’s greatest Christmas parties instead.
