    For Everyone Who Has A Lot Of Feelings About The "Hey Arnold" Christmas Special

    Get your tissues out, people.

    It's December, which means it's time for the most wonderful televised events of the year: Christmas specials! For years, one has stood out above them all: Arnold's Christmas.

    If you haven't seen it yet, you're in for a treat. Basically, Arnold is tasked with finding a gift for Mr. Hyunh. And after hearing about how he gave up his daughter so she could have a better life, Arnold decides to find her for him.

    This episode has everything. There's comedy!

    A curmudgeonly, Scrooge-like character who ends up saving the day at the last minute!

    A moral dilemma about a sick Christmas present!

    And of course, the true meaning of Christmas.

    But the best moment comes when Mr. Hyunh is finally reunited with his daughter, Mai.

    I'M NOT CRYING, YOU'RE CRYING.

    *UNCONTROLLABLE SOBBING*

    And then you bawl even more because this miracle happened because of Helga's selflessness. Arnold doesn't even know he's her Christmas angel!

    *Wipes away tear.*
