Yule log engaged.

All right, boys! Stand by for eggnog!

Aye aye, Skipper!

EGGNOG!

Private?

I'll pass, thank you.

[in unison]

Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!

Skipper

Well done, Rico! This guy can really hold his nog.

Skipper

21:10 hours, boys! Engage cranberries! [Rico is playing the "Knife game" at the table] Rico! Not at the table. [noticing a problem] Hold on a second! Something's missing!

Kowalski

Cranberries: check! Eggnog: check!

Skipper

Give me a headcount.

Kowalski

[grabs abacus]

We have three heads, sir!

Skipper

Where's the private?!

Kowalski

Unknown, sir! It would appear that he's [grabs milk carton] missing!

Skipper

[Kowalski shows milk carton with a big 'missing' advert for the private]

Missing? Hoover Dam! Wait, there he is. He just went to bed. [pulls off sheets, revealing a bowling pin underneath] What the...?! [slapping the pin] What have you done with Private? Talk, Mister!

Kowalski

Skipper! Over here!

Skipper

[to pin]

I'll deal with you later.

Kowalski

Oh, no. He must be out there all by himself.

Skipper

He's one of us, men. You all know the Penguin Credo.

Kowalski

Never bathe in hot oil and Bisquick?

Skipper

No. [Rico speaks Japanese gibberish] No, that's the Walrus Credo. It's "Never swim alone." Private's out there all by himself, and we never leave one of our own.

Kowalski and Rico

Oh, yeah.

Skipper

Now let's go.

Private

Oh, that's perfect! Just the thing for a sad polar bear.

Skipper

Kowalski, analysis.

Kowalski

Adrenaline, sweat and sardines. These tracks are fresh, sir.

Skipper

He's close. I can feel it.

Rico

[pulls out a stick of dynamite and a match]

Kaboom?

Skipper

Yes, Rico. Kaboom.

Skipper

[Rico blows up the area surrounding the apartment door, causing the door itself to fall from the lack of support and giving the Penguins an escape route]

Come on, boys.

Nana

What is all this? Mr. Chew, this is all your fault! Bad dog! You are on a big time out!

Private

Thanks for rescuing me, Skipper.

Skipper

Think nothing of it, young Private. It's the least we could do. You remember the penguin credo.

Private

What does deep-frying in Bisquick have to do with any of this?

Skipper

Not that one, the other one! "Never swim alone". Alone! On Christmas! Don't you get it? Come on people, do I have to explain this to everybody? [Rico nods]
