While hugging the ghosts of his former family,  Ebenezer is taken away from them where he soon meets  The Ghost of Christmas Present. The ghost shows  Ebenezer the joys of Christmas and how he should learn to forgive himself for what happened in the past. When he shadows B ob Cratchit (who was his primary enforcer),  Ebenezer learns of Tiny Tim  and tearfully admits that Tim resembles his deceased stepson. When  The Ghost of Christmas Present begins to fade away,  Ebenezer pleads with him to stay as he sees the ghost as his only true friend but the ghost leaves him with soft words of encouragement for the future.

When  The Ghost of Christmas Future arrives, Ebenezer only sees the ghost as a shadow and once in a physical form of black mist. Ebenezer finds himself at a table with a chess board of people. The ghost doesn't speak for itself, only replaying Ebenezer's cold dialog as the ghost takes away Tiny Tim and leaving the old chess pieces on the board as they curse  Ebenezer and weep from his remorseless and callous actions. When  Ebenezer tries to convince himself that he will be able to change his actions on the futures day, the ghost takes him to his grave which suddenly breaks open and drags  Ebenezer inside with chains and hooks. When he begins weeping and pleading as the grave fills with petrol, the ghost lights a match and drops it into the grave.

Awaking from his nightmare. Ebenezer arises from his bed as a new man. He immediately removes all of his clients from the debt list and uses his profits to create a christmas party for Bob's family, his clients and employees. In the epilogue it reveals that Tim was able to make a full recovery, Bob and the other employees managed to get new jobs with finacial security and  Ebenezer became a careers adviser who inspired a generation with astounding acts of compassion and empathy.
