Didi: Angelica? Is that a lump of coal? Chuckie: You know, Tommy? You were right. Santa isn't such a bad guy after all. (They hug Angelica.) Phil & Lil: Thanks, Angelica! Angelica: Ew, baby germs! Real Santa: Merry Christmas, Chuckie. Still think I'm so scary? Real Santa: You know, sometimes trying to be good is as important as being good in the first place. Well, gotta go. Another 900 million children on my list. Angelica: It's over Cynthia. My future as a kid is over. Real Santa: Merry Christmas, Tommy, Phil, Lil! Aren't you guys up past your bedtime? Angelica: I just wanted to find out if I'm on the good list or the bad list this year. Cog Guy: Hmm; let me check with one of my elves. (pause) Oh yes, Angelica; you're on the... oh yes, you're on the BAD list. Angelica: It all started when the first present was given by the Pilgrims a long long time ago. After that, everybody started giving presents. Even the Easter Bunny started giving them until Santa slapped him with a lawsuit. Tommy: Doggy door? Chuckie: Check. Tommy: Dining room windows? Chuckie: Check. Tommy: Chimbley? Chuckie: Chimbley? Tommy: Oh, you're right. No one in their right mind would try to come down a chimbley. Dream Santa: I know everything. Phil got a new Reptar doll. Lil got a new coloring book. And what did YOU get? (Dumps coal out of his sack) Grandpa: You see, Santa may be old, but he's as sharp as a toothpick. And if you've been bad, you don't get that special doll you've wanted, or that fine looking electric train...Instead, you get a great, big ugly lump of coal! Angelica: I'm bad, Cynthia! Real bad! Chuckie: He's bad, Tommy! Real bad! Chazz: What's wrong with me? I'm a good actor. Remember our 4th grade play? I got the title role in "Wind And The Willows"! Drew: Chazz, you were a tree. Chazz: I was the willow!
Lil: Where did you get that neat box of toys? Angelica: From Santa Claus. Phil: I thought he only gave you stuff for Christmas. Angelica: Nah, you just gotta know how to work him. Chuckie: I'm telling you, Tommy, that Santa's a bad guy. He's always watching you, keeping track of everything you do. And then, in the middle of the night, he breaks into your house with a big bag full of who knows what. Tommy: But Chuckie, he's got presents in that bag. Chuckie: Ah sure, that's what he wants you to think! Angelica: Santa Claus is a fake! Run for your lives! Tommy: Chuckie! You can't be scared of Santa! He's big and fat and jolly and gives you presents! Chuckie: That's not what I heard! I WAS THE WILLOW! -Chaz Chuckie: First, it gets really, really cold. Then, the grown-ups start acting real nice...and smiling all the time. And that's not the worsest part! One night... he comes! Tommy: Who comes? Chuckie: The scariest guy in the world! Santa Claus!
