The scariest guy

Santa Claus.

Santa Claus.

Chuckie, you can’t

Chuckie, you can’t

be scared of Santa.

He’s big and fat and jolly

and gives you presents.

That’s not what I heard.

Who’s next to see Santa?

Me! Me! Me!

Oh, oh.

Ho! Ho! Ho!

And how are you

today, little, um…

Angelica.

Angelica.

Why don’t you tell Santa

what you want for Christmas?

I want a Luxurious Hair

Cynthia Doll.

Of course you do, and if

you’re a good little girl…

A Teenage Nuclear Fusion

Squad video game.

Well…

A Rocko Mr. X Exploding

Smash-up Doll, a Beverly

Hills Cynthia Lunch Box.

A pony and an 9/11 emergency

surgical kit with stethoscope.

That’s an awful

lot of presents.

I’m not

finished yet!

The most importantest

thing is a Deluxe

Cynthia Beach House

with real working hot tub,

satellite dish

entertainment center,

and attached garage.

Yes, Angelica, that’s

a mighty long list of toys.

I don’t know if Santa…

                                  Hold on.

If you’re Santa, how come

you don’t know this already?

Well, uh…

           Wait a minute.

You’re not the

real Santa Claus.

You’re not the

real Santa Claus.

You’re a phony.

You’re a phony.

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Santa Claus is a fake!

THANkS         FOR

SHOPPING

Wow!

Where’d you get

that neat box of toys?

From Santa Claus.

I thought he only

gave you stuff at Christmas.

Nah, you just

got to know how to work him.

Nah, you just

Cheer up, big bro.

Toy

ANNEX

Can you imagine

how upset Angelica must be

finding out

Santa was a fake?

She doesn’t

look upset.

CHARLES:

The manager gave her

practically every toy.

CHARLES:

The manager gave her

practically every toy.

Do you think toys

can compensate for that?

She may be

traumatized for life.

Hey, this is a bunch of junk.

They didn’t give me

any of the stuff I wanted.

Even if she is traumatized,

she’ll still have

a better Christmas

than I ever had.

What do you mean, Charles?

Didn’t you have dinner

Didn’t you have dinner

with family and presents?

When I was a kid, Christmas

was always disappointing.

My best gift was

a rubber glove and

a tongue depressor.

I’m afraid it’ll be

the same for Chuckie.

I wish I could reaffirm

Angelica’s faith in Santa.

BETTY:

A real white Christmas.

What a great idea.

We can chop down our

own tree and sing carols

and open our presents up

there on Christmas morning.

I’ll call the travel agent

Just my luck.

I get a whole bunch

What am I going to do with

a bunch of dumb old crayons?

What am I going to do with

Now what’s this?

And a Reptar space helmet.

Keeping track

I’ll dress up as Santa

The kids’ll

Yeah. Of course… (LAUGHS)

We wouldn’t have you,

we’d get a professional.

A Reptar surf board.

No!

A Reptar space helmet, dummy!

Hey, that’s

a great idea, Angelica.

Chuckie, that’s it.

We’ll catch Santa and make him

tell us if he’s good or bad.

But I don’t want

to catch him.

Gather round, sprats,

I want to tell you

about Santa Claus.

           (BOTH GASP)

about Santa Claus.

           (BOTH GASP)

Now, maybe you’ve heard

folks saying he’s not real.

Just a fairy tale.
