Funny / Scrooge: A Christmas Carol

• Scrooge trying to avoid Harry in the streets by hiding behind a bunch of market stalls, only for Harry to catch up with him immediately and start fussing over Prudence.
  • Scrooge repeatedly tries to evade his nephew on his way back to the office, and appears to have finally lost him. At least until he opens his office door:
  Scrooge: I've had more than my fill of people for one... (Door opens to Harry blasting away on a trumpet) ...day.
• Scrooge, thoroughly sick of hearing people say "Merry Christmas", slams the door in Cratchit's face when he leaves for the night.
  Cratchit: Merry Christmas, Mr. Scrooge!
  Scrooge: Yes yes, ding dong, merrily!
  (Slams door)
• Scrooge's conversation with Marley has moments of levity mixed in with the creepiness. Upon his arrival, Marley apologizes for the dramatic entrance, saying that "those in charge" insist on a bit of seasonal pagentry. He then accidentally disclocates his jaw when talking to Scrooge and hastily tries to realign it, all while Scrooge is visibly trying not to hurl.
  • Scrooge then tries to laugh off the entire encounter and dismiss it as a result of an Acid Reflux Nightmare, much to Marley's annoyance.
  Scrooge: Ah, I must have drifted off by the fire. I'm dreaming! (laughs heartily) Serves me right for eating cheese so close to bedtime, I suppose.
• Upon meeting the Ghost of Christmas Past, Scrooge tries to rationalize what's happening by insisting that he's gone insane and this "Talking wax work with a wick for brains" isn't real. Past promptly responds by sharply slapping Scrooge across the face.
  Ghost of Christmas Past: There! Did that feel real?
  Scrooge: (Holding his sore cheek) I-I suppose it did. (whining) It hurt, too!
• The Ghost of Christmas Past provides numerous funny moments through her shapeshifting abilities, particularly when mocking Scrooge.
  Ghost of Christmas Past: (stomping around in the form of Scrooge) Bah, humbugs! Christmas is an outrage! Grr, give me your money! Interest rates, and so on.
• Scrooge tries to interact with a man in the past by tapping him on the shoulder, only to be suddenly electrocuted, which sends him into a cartwheel and briefly winds up standing on his head, singed and stunned.
• The Ghost of Christmas Present putting on a gigantic, showstopping performance on the wonders of life and how worthwhile it is to live in the present moment. Despite all the theatrics, Scrooge is thoroughly unimpressed and demands to be taken home. But the Ghost of Christmas Present won't take no for an answer and drags Scrooge along for a jaunt around the town.
  Ghost of Christmas Present: But the fireworks! We did a whole song and everything! Well, I'm not giving up on you yet, Ebenezer Scrooge. (drags Scrooge along on a couch to an open portal) C'mon! Let's hit the town!
  Scrooge: Hit the town? I'll hit something else in a minute!
• Scrooge dancing along with the funeral parade in the Bad Future, completely oblivious to the fact that it's his death the people are celebrating.
  • Adding to that, despite the dark implications it's rather amusing to see the Ghost of Christmas Future (who's the most serious and most no-nonsense being in the whole scene) in the background of the funeral parade just slowly gliding behind everybody. You can't help but wonder if the being's eagerly awaiting for Scrooge to realize what's going on or if it’s enjoying the celebration in its own way by watching from afar.
• Upon returning to the real world, a panicked Scrooge wakes up tangled in his sheets, and runs around the room in a mad fit of fear before running face first into the bed post.
