A scene from How the Grinch Stole Christmas 2000
Cindy Lou Who

But, Dad, I just don't understand something. Why won't anyone talk about the Grinch?

Lou Lou Who

[puts stuff inside]

You kids and the Grinch. You see, Cindy, the Grinch is a Who who... well, is actually not a Who. He's... He's more of a…

Cindy Lou

A what?

Lou

Exactly, honey. And he's a What who... doesn't like Christmas. Take a look at his mailbox, sweetie. Not a single Christmas card in or out... ever.

Cindy

But why?

Lou

Well…

Post Office Person

Lou, where's my mail?

Post Office Person 2

Lou, I got the wrong mail here!

Post Office Person 3

Lou, I got the wrong mail!

Lou

Uh, I'll be right there. Whoop!

Post Office Person 4

We got a problem!

Lou

All right. Uh, we'll straighten this out.

Grinch

[at the back room of the post office with Max by the sorting machine; laughing evilly]

It'll take them years to sort this out. This is his and now it's yours, and this is hers and now it's his! [laughs schemingly] And for the rest of you... [turns around by the sorting machine, then starts throwing everyone's mail in the wrong boxes] ...Jury duty, Jury duty, Jury duty, blackmail, pink slip, chain letter, eviction notice, Jury duty! [throws more mail into the wrong boxes as he emits a light giggle of amusement] Gee-e-e-e-e-eee…!

Lou Lou Who

Would you mind helping me? Take this to the back room, honey. But, be careful of the sorting machine, right?

Cindy

Yeah.
