- Mrs. Claus: [about the magic fading] My goodness.
- Santa Claus: I was afraid of this. With Christmas coming so soon, the icicle just doesn't have enough magic to spare. I never thought I'd have such a friend.
- Ms. Stout: What is going on in here? Willamina, who brought a puppy in here?
- Quinn: It was me, Ms. Stout. I found Paws.
- Ms. Stout: Nice try, Quinn, but I don't believe you. Don't think I don't know who the ringleader of this circus is. Willamina, come with me!
- [sees Paws' magic crystal]
- Ms. Stout: Well, that's a pretty gem.
- [takes crystal out of Paws' collar]
- Paws: No, don't! Not my crystal!
- Ms. Stout: [she picks up Paws] And the rest of you, clean up this mess and take off those ridiculous dresses, now!
- Santa Claus: My goodness! I guess he's going to need a name!
- Mrs. Claus: He is yours to name, dear.
- Santa Claus: I think I'm going to name you Paws.
- [chuckles]
- Santa Claus: You and I are going to be best friends for all eternity.
- Paws: Eternity? How long is that?
- Santa Claus: Why, forever, young pup!
- Ms. Stout: I think it's time we show Quinn the consequences of breaking the rules. Inside! Willamina knows that when you break the rules, you get to spend all night down here in the basement.
- [she takes Quinn to show her the incinerator]
- Ms. Stout: You don't wanna be locked down here all night, do you?
- [Quinn shakes her head no]
- Ms. Stout: Well, good. I'm glad we understand each other.
- [to Willamina]
- Ms. Stout: You're staying here, and no dinner for you, either.
- Santa Claus: Paws? Paws, you're back! But how?
- Mrs. Claus: It was your love for each other and Christmas magic!
- Santa Paws: Santa, what happened to me?
- Santa Claus: You're no longer a pup. From now on your name will be Santa Paws!
- Santa Paws: Now we really can be best friends for all eternity, Santa Claus.
- Kate Huckle: Is he gonna be OK?
- [Eli shakes his head no]
- Quinn: Is Santa going to die?
- Kate Huckle: We don't know, sweetie.
- Willamina: [sobbing] He has to make it.
- Paws: Eli? Take my crystal off and place it next to Santa's.
- Eli: Paws, if you do that, we might not be able to bring you back a second time.
- Eddy the Elf Dog: And you may become a stuffed toy forever.
- Paws: We have no choice. All the children around the world need him. Can you imagine a world without Santa Claus?
- Ms. Stout: What is that, a Christmas decoration?
- [snatches ornament out of Quinn's hands]
- Quinn: No!
- Ms. Stout: [scoffs] What are my rules about Christmas decorations?
- Quinn: My mom gave that to me! Please give it back!
- Ms. Stout: No! Now, get upstairs before you end up in the basement, too!
- [Quinn heads her way up and stops for a second]
- Ms. Stout: Scoot!
