The toys burst as does the flubber turning into a neon green gooey liquid that covers everything and everyone.
Just before midnight Elia emails the return gift letter to Santa Claus in North Pole. Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus and few elves take Trip home from the North Pole. Elia’s friends, Elia and Ivana have their jaws dropping when they realize that Santa Claus is real. Elves wipe clean these memories which include among others those of Ciocca so that no one gets wind of this.
Elia sees his father or not?
Elia’s father has been mentioned throughout the film but never made an appearance in it since its start. Ivana only says she is not aware about his whereabouts since he is out on duty but he has assured to meet him on Christmas Day itself so far. Elia loses all hope after confirming that his mom and dad have divorced each other. After Trip leaves, Elia heads for home with other members of the gang where he finds a figure waiting for him: his dad! All Elia wished for was seeing his father even if just once during Christmas.
Elf Me is another movie that makes you feel good about Christmas and highlights its true value system by portraying what it stands for in different scenes along with presenting gifts from Santa Clause in a more likely manner than any other children film I have ever seen; one can watch this movie regardless of age because these days everyone becomes younger while making requests to Santa-Clause!
