Mr Scrooge is a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, miserable old man. Nobody stops him in the street to say a cheery hello; nobody would dare ask him for a favour. And I hope you'd never be so foolish as to wish him a 'Merry Christmas'! Scrooge doesn't believe in Christmas, charity, kindness - or ghosts.
史古基這可憐的老傢伙,不僅壓榨員工、總是曲解他人善意、個性貪婪又吝嗇,焦慮害怕更使他緊抓著錢財不放。大街上沒有人願意停下腳步,向他打聲招呼,沒有人膽敢找他幫忙,更沒有人會笨到跟他說聲聖誕快樂,史古基不認同樂善好施,更不相信聖誕節的真諦或鬼神之說。
