wife in time. They then see a now jaded Rosecog announce that he is selling the company, as he has lost both of the people he loved most in the world. The two also travel to Karroll's past, where they see him publicly propose to his then girlfriend Lisa while wearing a caribou costume. She rejects him and also informs him that she was cheating on him. The final ghost, Christmas Future, is also aware that Karroll is the wrong person but is equally willing to continue on with the façade. The two watch as Rosecog dies alone in a hospital room while all of his belongings are sold or thrown away. The man dies alone, mistakenly believing that his daughter wanted nothing to do with him, when in reality she was unable to come to his side in time. Karroll also learns that he has lost his job and that Carrie had broken up with him. Karroll wakes with new purpose on Christmas Day and decides to win over Rosecog. He unsuccessfully tries to use the remote to accomplish this, breaking it in the process. He instead manages to break through to Rosecog by humming the Christmas song that was playing near his wife's deathbed. The two men reconcile and are able to bring Rosecog and his daughter back together. Rosecog also drops the lawsuit and Karroll testifies to the child's innocence. With the help of the three ghosts, Karroll is able to steal a reindeer suit and sneak into his girlfriend's concert and propose. She agrees, in turn confessing that she was going to propose to him. Karroll is also able to save his job by using a popup card design that Rosecog had created.
