00:30We sing this tune as flowers bloom and snow melts all away
00:48For spring has come and with it comes another Easter day
00:52The church bells ring and birdies sing a bright cacophony
01:00I celebrate with tea and cake, it's the British way for me
01:04I am big for coloured eggs, I fill my basket full
01:08That's my new hat, you give it back, now aren't I beautiful
01:14Thank you Constable, we sure feel safe with you around
01:19Good morning Constable
01:20Buy a lily for the orphans, oh help us in our plight
01:24Just two pennies for a lily, and we'll sleep in sight tonight
01:30Lily for the orphans, help the orphans, buy a lily
01:34Depends for a lily, Governor
01:36How's that?
01:37A lily, Gov, for Easter
01:38This? For Easter?
01:40Yes sir, it's a symbol of new life and...
01:42But it's real, it won't last
01:44Excuse me sir?
01:45It'll be gone tomorrow, it's too fragile
01:49See?
01:51This is what Easter's about, it's colourful, it's pretty, it's plastic
01:57Now wouldn't you like this instead of your silly lily?
02:01Your grandmother helped the orphanage, she always bought a lily for Easter
02:05My grandmother made Easter
02:09Just a moment young lady, you forgot to pay for that egg
02:15Ouch
02:16We sing this tune as rainbows bloom on eggs red, green and blue
02:20Like flowers in windows when the sun comes shining through
02:24The window here is mighty dear, a precious work of art
02:32But patience lass, we'll see this glass tomorrow when Easter starts
02:36The hope of Easter's coming to shine forth in the morn
02:40It is coming now to bring us the gift of life reborn
02:47Hey dad, isn't that old man Nezer?
02:50Edmund, his name is Mr. Ebenezer Nezer
02:53Could you hand me an O?
02:55Sure, is he really the richest man in town?
02:58I don't know about that, but his family has owned most of the property around here for generations
03:03How about a couple of hours now?
03:05Even the land this old church sits on
03:07Here you go
03:08Why don't we ever see him in church?
03:10I don't really know, I heard he used to come when he was little, his grandmother would bring him
03:14I need an O now and a W if you can find it
03:17So why doesn't he come anymore?
03:20How about an upside down M?
03:22Maybe he just doesn't like Easter
03:24Oh sure he does, why he makes all the Easter eggs in his factory
03:28Yeah, but why doesn't he celebrate Easter with the rest of us?
03:31Doesn't he like church?
03:33Tell you what, we'll go see him later and invite him ourselves
03:36We're going to see the unveiling of the new stained glass window tomorrow
03:39In the meantime, you be respectful
03:41Hey, isn't that old man Nezer?

11:50She built herself a factory to do what she loved best.
11:57And so I'm building Easterland, my one and only quest.
12:05But that's not what she meant.
12:07You can't do that!
12:09Of course I have to build a chocolate bernie factory, too.
12:11You can't turn on the church!
12:13Don't be silly.
12:14That land has been in my family for generations.
12:16If you just came to the service, you'd realize that...
12:19You've got to talk to him.
12:20Uncle Ebeneezer, Easter is a time when...
12:23When I am interrupted
12:26By people
12:28Bugging me
12:30To come to church
12:32And save the orphans
12:34And shut my factory
12:37But early tomorrow morning
12:40Our crew will start at eight
12:43On knocking down that little church
12:47And building something great
12:50And folks will come from miles around
12:53In trains, on bikes, on legs
12:56And Grandpa will live forever
12:59Just like my little plastic cake
13:03Come on!
13:04Don't do it!
13:05You can't do that!
13:06It's a really bad idea!
13:09I don't care about your service or your windows or your glass!
13:13I'm going to build the world a place where Easter is a blast!
13:16We won't let you do this!
13:18Be gone from me, naysayers, who won't help me with my deed!
13:21Get out of here and don't come back!
13:23I'll go unaccompanied!
13:25We're fired?
13:26Effective immediately!
13:28At eight a.m. the church comes down
13:31I'll show you without guilt
13:34The world would be a better place
13:38If that church was never built!
13:47I can't believe it!
13:49Old Man Nezer!
13:51He cancelled Easter!
13:53That's Mr. Nezer and he hasn't done anything... yet.
13:57What are we going to do?
14:00Well, we just need to have hope!
14:17You're up awfully late, lassie.
14:20Yes, sir.
14:21But is it true what they're saying?
14:23About the church?
14:25Aye, lass.
14:27It's true.
14:28But what's going to happen?
14:30What about the orphanage?
14:32What will become of us?
14:35Let me see your home, lass.
14:38I'll be back in a minute.
14:42Amen.
14:43Amen.
14:44Now, you get to sleep.
14:46It's late and we've all got a big day tomorrow.
14:50Dad?
14:51Yes?
14:52I'm still really worried about Old Man...
14:54I mean, Mr. Nezer tearing down the church.
14:57What'll we do?
14:58Now, Edmund, as crazy as it sounds,
15:01you have to have faith in God.
15:04He's the one who's going to save us.
15:08Now, Edmund, as crazy as it sounds,
15:10you have to have hope.
15:12Hope?
15:13Hope for what?
15:14Hope that no matter what happens,
15:16God is taking care of us.
15:18I guess so, but...
15:19Faith is being sure of what we hope for
15:22and certain of what we do not see.
15:25Good night, Edmund.
15:26I love you.
15:27I love you too, Dad.
15:38The concession stand will go right here.
15:42And the gift shop...
15:45Oh, it's going to be great, Grandma.
15:48You're really going to like it.
15:51I'll put your picture right over the door.
15:56I'll put your picture right over the door.
16:00I'll put your picture right over the door.
16:04I'll put your picture right over the door.
16:30Ebenezer!
16:32Ebenezer!
16:34Ebenezer, wake up!
16:36Huh?
16:37Who's there?
16:38Hello?
16:39Ebenezer, look at me when I'm talking to you.
16:43Grandma?
16:46Surprise!
16:51Abby, Abby, get up off the floor.
16:53Don't you recognize my voice?
16:56That's a ghost!
16:58Nonsense!
16:59Didn't I teach you there's no such thing as ghosts?
17:02Oh, yeah.
17:03Well, what are you then?
17:05You're having a vision.
17:07A what?
17:08A vision.
17:09It's like a dream.
17:10With a point.
17:11A point?
17:12Which is exactly what you've missed.
17:14Huh?
17:15Oh, Abby, why didn't you listen?
17:17To what?
17:18Oh, you didn't listen, Ebenezer.
17:21To what?
17:22To what I wanted you to learn.
17:24I don't remember you...
17:25I'm like the guy ignored by Caesar.
17:27Caesar?
17:28Who knew that Rome was gonna burn?
17:30What did Rome got to do with any...
17:31You didn't listen, Ebenezer.
17:33Yeah, you said that.
17:34That's why my nose is out of joint.
17:36Well, your nose looks fine.
17:37I know you aren't a people pleaser.
17:39I guess that's true.
17:40But you really missed the point.
17:44What point?
17:46Easter, the point.
17:47You got it all backwards and upside down.
17:50What do you mean?
17:51How's it supposed to go?
17:54I'm not going to tell you.
17:56What?
17:57A lesson learned is soon returned.
17:59A lesson lived is wisdom gived.
18:02Uh, gived?
18:04What? I'm dead.
18:05Cut me some slack.
18:07Ebenezer, you are in for a wild ride.
18:11At the stroke of midnight,
18:13you will receive a second visit.
18:16Hold on tight.
18:28Who's there?
18:30If you're the visitor, you're...
18:33You're early.
18:39Would you try to keep it down?
18:41Sorry.
18:42I think I stepped in a gopher hole.
18:44Or something.
18:47Now, you're in for a wild ride.
18:50At the stroke of midnight,
18:52you will receive a second visit.
18:54Hold on tight.
18:57Come on. We don't have a lot of time.
18:59Why do we want to break into the factory again?
19:03We have to get those plans.
19:05No plans, no Easterland.
19:07No Easterland, and they don't have to tear down the church.
19:09It's bad enough that we burned down the theater.
19:11I'm not going to let the church come down, too.
19:14I still don't feel very good about stealing the plans.
19:17Milward, we're not stealing the plans.
19:20We're just borrowing the plans.
19:24Right.
19:26It's just that the last time we stole...
19:29Borrowed something.
19:30It didn't work out so well.
19:32Milward, we've got to save that church.
19:34Come on, now. Hoist me up.
19:36Okay.
19:39You're stepping on my...
19:41Ouch!
19:42Just a little higher.
19:43Oh, you're slipping.
19:45Mika, just...
19:47Sorry.
19:49Try again?
19:54Yep.
20:01I'm just going to stay awake.
20:03I'm not tired at all.
20:05I'm just going to stay wide.
20:17Just a little bit.
20:18I can't quite...
20:20Just an inch or two.
20:21I'm trying as hard as I can.
20:23Milward?
20:25A casual.
20:26Milward?
20:27Milward!
20:28Shh!
20:34Hello.
20:35Tee hee.
20:58Ah.
21:12Ah! Ah! Ah!
21:15What? Hey.
21:17It's a bug.
21:18A big bug.
21:20Do I look like a bug to you?
21:22You're the visitor.
21:24Ding, ding, ding.
21:25Give the man a prize.
21:26Perhaps you aren't as dense as they say.
21:29So, what are you doing here?
21:31Maybe you are.
21:33Did you hear anything your grandmother said?
21:35Uh, something about me missing the point or something.
21:39Yes, Ebenezer, you've missed the point.
21:42The point of Easter, the point of that church over there, the...
21:45Oh, I know the point of that church.
21:47They try to keep people cooped up all Easter so they can't buy my eggs.
21:51That's why we'll all be better off without it.
21:54It's going to be a long night.
21:57Come on, let's get going.
21:58We've got some ground to cover.
22:00Uh-huh.
22:01Easy.
22:02Ah! Ah!
22:03What are we doing up here?
22:05Take me back!
22:06Not so fast, big fella.
22:08I've got lots to show you.
22:12Could you put it in a picture book?
22:14Or maybe some slides?
22:16Nice try.
22:17Look, you're going to see many things tonight,
22:19but mostly you're going to see that you're a first-class stinker.
22:22You're not a miser or a scrooge or anything like that.
22:25You just don't see what's right in front of you.
22:29Oh, here we are.
22:31Ebenezer?
22:32Ebenezer?
22:34Would you quit clowning around?
22:35We don't have all night.
22:43Oh, is this place still here?
22:45This is where I build Meesterland, you know.
22:48So I heard.
22:49After you.
22:52What's your name, anyway?
22:54It's Hope.
22:56Hey, you've got to help me.
22:58I've been kidnapped by a bug.
23:03What's the matter with that guy?
23:04You're not really here.
23:06Huh?
23:07Hey, it's Grandma!
23:10Grandma, you're okay!
23:12What are you doing here?
23:14She can't hear you.
23:17Hi, Grandma!
23:19You feeling okay?
23:21You're not really here, Ebenezer.
23:24This is Easter Past.
23:26Easter Past?
23:28Oh.
23:30Well, that's Grandma, all right.
23:33But I don't remember that funny-looking kid.
23:35That's you.
23:36Now hush up and listen.
23:38Ooh, that's my first Easter basket.
23:41I remember that.
23:43Hey, it's empty.
23:45Yes, just like the tomb in the story.
23:47Now listen, Ebenezer.
23:48This is important.
23:50But there's nothing here.
23:53Oh, oh, look.
23:54Look.
23:56Not even a jelly bean.
24:03Christmas?
24:04Yes, that's where the story begins.
24:06You can't have one without the other.
24:08You see, that baby boy born...
24:09Hey, buddy.
24:10Wanna buy an Easter egg?
24:12Boy, listen to your grandma.
24:14She's here to help you, you know.
24:16And you won't listen to anybody.
24:18Yeah, I noticed.
24:19Come on, nothing more to see here.
24:21Huh?
24:26I still don't understand that Christmas thing.
24:28Sure was a pretty picture, though.
24:30Seems a pity you're gonna knock it down.
24:32Yeah.
24:33Can I go home now?
24:38Oh!
24:39Great!
24:40Well, thanks for a very lovely evening.
24:42I sure did learn a lot.
24:43But I got a business to run.
24:44So be sure to say hi to your little bug friends for me, okay?
24:48What?
24:51Huh?
24:53Well, now you messed things up.
24:54I got two of me.
24:56Hang on.
24:57This is still Easter past.
24:58A year ago.
24:59Don't you remember this day?
25:08Oh, Grandma.
25:09The chickens have been slowing down since you, uh...
25:12Since you, uh...
25:15But I've got a plan.
25:21Seymour!
25:22Thanks for coming.
25:23What's that?
25:25It's my latest invention.
25:27The Easter Mephonia!
25:29Ooh!
25:30How's it work?
25:31You just throw this lever and watch the fun!
25:36Mm-hmm.
25:37I like that crazy beat.
25:41So, uh...
25:42You called for an inventor?
25:44Why, yes, I did, Seymour.
25:45You see, I got a little problem.
25:46Problem?
25:47Problem.
25:48Problem.
25:49Yes, I got a little problem with my chickens.
25:50Chickens?
25:51Birds.
25:52Boids.
25:53Birds.
25:54Well, I don't know why you called me.
25:55Then I'm an inventor.
25:56And I don't know much about boids.
25:58Boids?
25:59Boids.
26:00Yep, and I don't know nothing much about boids.
26:02Well, that's exactly why I called you, friend.
26:04I need a way to make eggs around the clock.
26:06Tick-tock.
26:07These real chickens always need a rest, you see.
26:09They don't matter.
26:10But where do I come in?
26:11Well, I hear you're a whiz when it comes to inventin'.
26:13Inventin'?
26:14Inventin'.
26:15Mechanization.
26:16Industrialization.
26:17Inventin' things sure is fun.
26:18Well, what I need, my friend, is a row of chickens.
26:21Chickens?
26:22Chickens.
26:23Mechanical chickens, as far as the eye can see.
26:25Boids.
26:26You catch on quick.
26:27But what about the eggs?
26:28Eggs?
26:29Eggs!
26:30Eggs!
26:31Plastic.
26:32Can a tin chicken lay real eggs?
26:33Plastic.
26:34Plastic?
26:35Plastic, my friend, in whatever color you can think it.
26:37Plastic.
26:38Plastic.
26:39Plastic.
26:40Yes, with mechanical chickens and plastic eggs, I can make Easter bigger than before.
26:43Easter?
26:44Easter.
26:45Yes, Easter.
26:46Wait a minute.
26:47You can't make Easter bigger with plastic eggs.
26:52What I said, my friend.
26:53No, no, no, no, no, no.
26:54You got it all wrong.
26:56What do you mean?
26:57Easter's not about plastic eggs and bunnies and baskets.
27:01But isn't Easter supposed to last forever?
27:04Oh, of course.
27:05And doesn't plastic last forever?
27:08Yeah, but...
27:09I don't see the difference.
27:10Well, it's kind of...
27:12Inventing sure is fun.
27:13How's that?
27:14I said inventing sure is fun.
27:16Plastic?
27:17Plastic.
27:18Plastic.
27:19Plastic.
27:20Plastic.
27:21Plastic.
27:22Plastic.
27:23Plastic.
27:24Plastic.
27:25Plastic.
27:26Did you even pay him?
27:28I gave him an annual pass to Easterland.
27:30A 10% off at the gift shop.
27:32Oh, well, that's generous.
27:33You think?
27:34Out, you.
27:44Oh, my.
27:45It's night again.
27:46You keep messing with the lights.
27:48So, uh, what happened here?
27:50This isn't your past, Ebenezer.
27:52This is the present.
27:54A present?
27:55For me?
27:56Oh, you shouldn't have.
27:58No, not a present.
28:00The present.
28:01Easter present.
28:02Here and now.
28:04Oh, lovely.
28:06Let's go for a ride.
28:08Okay, okay.
28:09I got another idea.
28:18Oh, what's this place?
28:20Shh.
28:21Listen.
28:23Well, if Nezza really knew how his grandmother felt,
28:26he wouldn't touch that old church.
28:29I wouldn't?
28:30No, she sure loved that old place.
28:33Did you know she paid for all those beautiful windows herself?
28:36Aye.
28:37And the new window we were going to unveil tomorrow,
28:40she commissioned it just before she passed away.
28:43She sure would have loved everyone to see it.
28:45Now Nezza's gonna knock the whole thing down.
28:48I should have talked with him more.
28:50Dear, this isn't your fault.
28:52No, it's that old sour Nezza's fault.
28:56Why, I'd like to take that old ghoul scum and teach him a thing or two.
29:00I'd weave his Easter basket into a pretty kettle of fish.
29:03I'd, I'd...
29:06I, I guess he just needs to get out of that factory
29:10and find out what Easter is really all about.
29:15What a ninny.
29:16The factory is what Easter's all about.
29:19The eggs, the baskets.
29:21You don't get it, do you?
29:22They're talking about the hope of Easter.
29:25The hope of Easter changes everything.
29:27If you take it away, you won't like what you'll get.
29:30I'll get a lot more time for folks to buy eggs.
29:32That's what I'll get.
29:34And I'll get to build Easterland and keep my grandma alive forever.
29:40Mom, Dad.
29:42Edmund, you're supposed to be asleep.
29:44I know, but I couldn't sleep and, well, I've been thinking.
29:48Yes?
29:50Mr. Nezu isn't a bad man.
29:53What a sweet little boy.
29:55No, he just doesn't have something that we all have.
29:59The thing that lets us celebrate Easter all year long.
30:06Come on, Edmund.
30:08What's going on?
30:10How sick is he?
30:12Very sick, I'm afraid.
30:14Well, is he gonna...
30:17If he changes, this will be his last Easter.
30:23When are the doctors gonna tell his parents?
30:25They already know.
30:27What? They know?
30:29But they're so calm.
30:31How can they be so calm?
30:33I don't understand.
30:36Ebenezer, are you ready to listen?
30:40Where am I?
30:46There's a story that started on Christmas
30:52When a baby was born in the night
30:58And those who came for and followed this star
31:04And followed this star
31:07Were seeing a heavenly sight
31:14A heavenly sight
31:26Well, the years hurried by and the boy, now a man
31:31Could make the blind see with the touch of his hand
31:36He was born to be king, he was rabbi and priest
31:41The best that he had, he gave to the least
31:48Gave to the least
31:54He was born and he died almost two thousand years ago
32:00He laughed and he cried, he felt all the fears we know
32:05But what does it matter, a story so strange
32:11Even if it is true, what does it change?
32:19What does it change?
32:24Well, he spoke like a prophet, like no one they'd heard
32:30A simple young carpenter, crowned tongue on every word
32:35He hated injustice, he taught what is right
32:40He said, I'm the way and the truth and the light
32:47His friends soon believed that truly he was the one
32:52The saviour, the messiah, God's one and only son
32:57But others they doubted, they did not agree
33:06So they took him, they tried him, he died on a tree
33:13He died on a tree
33:20Where's the hope in that?
33:23If that was the end of the story, there'd be no hope
33:27But it isn't
33:31God has made a way
33:37For all who mourn and grieve
33:45Death will never be the end
33:51If you just believe
33:57There is nothing left to fear
34:01Nothing heaven knows
34:05For he died for us to give us life
34:09And to give us hope he rose
34:14He died for us to give us life
34:19And to give us hope he rose
34:27The hope of Easter is life everlasting
34:30If you believe in who he is and what he did for you
34:33If you believe
34:35Of course, we all have to live with our decisions
34:38The world would be a better place if that church was never built
34:42What? Oh, that, I...
34:45I'm afraid it's time to see what this town would be like without the hope of Easter
34:49Welcome to Easter Future
34:52Come on, we've got to get out of here
34:59Please, sir, would you buy a pencil?
35:03You can see me?
35:05All right, now go home, you little street urchin
35:08I've got no home, sir, but bless you
35:11What? I don't understand
35:14What's the matter with you?
35:16I don't understand
35:18I've got no home, sir, but bless you
35:21What? I don't understand
35:23Isn't the orphanage taking care of her?
35:25It was, but the orphanage was founded by folks filled with the hope of Easter
35:29No Easter, no hope, no orphanage
35:33Hey, my pencils!
35:36Hey, somebody stop him!
35:39Oh, he'll get him
35:41Stop! Thief!
35:43Oh, yeah? Well, what are you going to do about it?
35:47Nothing, nothing at all
35:51I don't get it
35:53What do you think made him brave in the first place?
35:56Without the hope of Easter, why would anyone risk their life for someone else?
36:01No more hope, and show me no more!
36:04We're not finished, I'm afraid
36:09Reverend Gilbert
36:13Oh, no
36:15Don't tell me
36:17No
36:19What have I done?
36:21It can't end this way, we have to change it
36:26Hope
36:28Hope?
36:29Hope! Tell me it can change!
36:31Tell me it doesn't have to be this way!
36:33Hope, we need you!
36:38I've got to stop him
36:41I've got to stop him
36:43Stop! Stop!
36:45We need hope!
36:54Is it too late?
37:02You there, girl!
37:04Yes, Gov?
37:05What day is it?
37:07Today?
37:08Today? What day is it?
37:10Why, it's Easter Sunday!
37:12Easter Sunday! Easter Sunday!
37:15It never sounded sweeter
37:17It's not too late after all
37:19Bye-a-lily, Gov'nor
37:22Thank you, Gov'nor
37:25The church
37:28Happy Easter, Grandma
37:39It's not working
37:41I can't go on
37:43I can't
37:45go
37:46on
37:49No, we can't give up, Millward
37:51There must be some way to get in there
37:53Good morning, boys! Happy Easter!
37:56Nice balloons!
38:00Here's our break, Millward
38:01Okay, I'll get the plans
38:03You keep watch
38:06Oh, dear
38:11Thank you for coming so early, everyone
38:13to what will be the last Easter Sunday
38:15we celebrate in this church
38:21Moyer is talking to the workmen right now
38:23to see if they'll give us just a few minutes
38:28We are very sorry, Reverend
38:30but we have our doubts
38:32This church! She must come down!
38:35Oh, gentlemen, please
38:37It is a crying shame
38:39but you cannot stand in the way of progress
38:46Wait!
38:49Don't touch this church!
38:52Mr. Nezzer!
38:54What did you say?
38:56I said, don't touch this church!
38:59I know I told you to tear it down
39:01that we'd all be better off without it
39:03but I was wrong
39:05I know that now
39:07I thought Easter was about eggs and candy
39:10but it's more than that
39:12It's about hope
39:14the hope that this life isn't all there is
39:16that dying isn't the end
39:18it's a new beginning
39:20if you believe
39:22That's what my grandma was trying to tell me
39:24That's what this church has been telling people
39:26since before I was born
39:29I've seen what life would be like
39:31without the hope of Easter
39:33and believe me, you don't want to go there
39:36This church is staying right here
39:38so that everybody can hear about the hope of Easter
39:44Just like my grandma would want it
39:47Somebody! Anybody!
39:50The factory! The chickens!
39:52It's all gonna blow!
39:54What?
39:56We tried to turn off the chickens
39:58but they're too hot!
40:00I got out okay but Calvus is inside!
40:02He's trapped!
40:04Someone! Call the police!
40:06Call the fire department!
40:26Calvus!
40:32Calvus!
40:46Calvus!
40:48Look here Mr. Desert
40:50I'll be silent no more
40:52You can't have these plans
40:54You can't build Easterland
40:56and you can't tear down that church
40:58Calvus, I didn't come to save those plans
41:00or even this factory

42:18and don't push the yellow button
42:20until I say so
42:22Shouldn't you have the controls?
42:24No, I have to watch that gate
42:28All the exits are blocked
42:30How are they gonna get out?
42:32Don't worry, our police officer
42:34is one of the bravest on the force
42:41Uh, officer down

44:23Mr. Nazer
44:25So, what are you gonna do?
44:28What am I gonna do?
44:30I'm gonna do what matters most
44:33Reverend, with whatever money I got left
44:36I'm gonna help you fix up that old house
44:39I'm gonna help you fix up that orphanage
44:42And I'm gonna make sure that boy gets his medicine
44:45Your grandmother would be proud
44:48I think she is
44:50Well, how are you gonna afford that?
44:53The factory's gone, it's all...
45:03Well, why are we all standing around here?
45:06It's Easter Sunday
45:08God bless us, everyone
45:11We sing this tune as flowers bloom
45:13And snow melts all away
45:15For spring has sprung and we think
45:17That it's another Easter day
45:19The Lord is here
45:21And church bells ring
45:23Announcing a new day
45:27We celebrate the joyous day
45:29Of heaven here on earth
45:31The Alphabet is coming
45:33To the short-formed people more
45:35It's coming now to bring us
