Christmas Chronicles II
Really, gentlemen, you can’t take me to jail! Don’t you know who I am? Kris Kringle, you know, Papa Noel, Pere Noel, Babbo Natale, sheng dan lao ren!
Yeah, Yeah, we’ve heard that one before, haven’t we Joe?
Yeah, last week we booked this guy who claimed to be the tooth fairy! Can you believe that?
It’s Christmas Eve and I have all these presents to deliver! Where is your Christmas spirit? What will happen when all the children wake up tomorrow and don’t find any gifts in their stockings?
Sorry buddy, you were parked in a no-parking zone, you were speeding, and you have no ID!
Besides that, even if we let you go now, your sleigh has been impounded and those reindeer were taken to the city zoo.
What! This is unbelievable! What’s this world coming to? Christmas is ruined!
What’s that up ahead? It looks like... elves!! Elves!! Whoa, they’re shooting candy canes! Mayday, Mayday, we are under heavy attack! We need backup!
