Feather Christmas (2024)

Post by bunniefuu »

[fire crackling]

[bells jingling]

[Robin] Christmas,

what a wonderful time of year.

The weather may be frightful,

but there is a magic

that surrounds us all.

During this festive time,

I find that folk are merry,

evenings are, oh, so cozy,

and the twinkle of Kris Kringle

shines through

the darkest of nights.

It isn't just the robins

that thrive in this period.

You can hear the chirping

of love, both new and old,

singing through

the neighborhood.

Well, most people, that is.

Sometimes I feel like I was

just never destined for love,

but who knows.

Maybe this year

will be different.

[radio host] Well, thank you,

Caller 52.

Um, a little dark

at the end there,

but I think we can all relate

to a bit of that lovely poem.

Next up on Smudge FM

is Christmas number one,

my favorite gift.

["Favourite Thing

This Christmas"

by Friends Like These playing]

[Martin] It is that time

of year again.

It really is.

Hop-op-op-op-op.

Relax, I've got you.

You're okay.

Hop-op-op-op-op. Okay.

Life's gonna change

now you've come around

-And I'll never let you go

-Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

Let's see.

[Martin humming, murmuring]

And I just need you to know

Okay.

You're my favorite thing

this Christmas

More than the trees

and the toys

For the girls

and the boys, yeah, you

All right, Mrs. Eggadactyl.

You ready for a little check-up?

'Cause you're

the greatest gift, baby

-Okay.

-You're my favorite thing

Okay.

Let's move you a little bit.

Just a little turn. There we go.

There. There. Good.

Very good, Mrs. Eggadactyl.

Now I'll just hold you.

I've got you. Come on.

You're more than okay.

You're okay.

You're okay, Mrs. Eggadactyl.

There we go.

Nice and easy. Okay.

Now, let's start with

a little check-up of your feet.

Ready? Are you ready?

Are you ready? There we go.

Three, two, one, and up.

Lovely.

Looking good. Okay.

Now, I'm going

to put you back down.

You're okay. You ready?

Three, two, one, go.

Mrs. Eggadactyl.

You're-- Hop-op-op.

You're okay. You're okay.

[Mrs. Eggadactyl clucking]

You're my favorite thing

this Christmas

More than the trees

and the toys for the girls...

-Hey.

-[woman] Hey.

-There you go.

-Thank you.

-In the spirit of the season.

-Oh.

[both chuckling]

[door clicks closed]

[Christmas melody playing]

[goat bleating]

[horse snorting]

Great.

Now you're looking

handsome and seasonal.

[grunts] You all right, bud?

Eggie's all good.

Though I still think naming her

after a flying dinosaur

is a little unfair.

Do we have any more red tinsel?

Uh...

no.

Good to see you

getting into the season, bud,

but, um, you don't have

to put tinsel on everything.

Yes, I do.

Mum said that since

we don't get much snow up here,

we have to make up for it

and put tinsel everywhere.

[laughs] Yeah.

Well, she did always know best,

so I guess, uh,

we'd better get a move on,

if we're going to put

tinsel everywhere.

Come on. [grunts]

-Ready?

-Yes.

[groans in effort]

Can he do it? Come on.

Come on. [grunts]

You're so strong, big guy.

[exhales]

I know you're strong, but...

how fast are you?

Race to the house.

Nice arm, Briceratops.

Why, thank you, Martinsel.

[Martin laughs]

[somber music playing]

Here you go.

Some piping hot chocolate.

[laughs] Aw.

Oh. [exhales]

Ah. Very nice fit.

[gasps] I forgot

your gingerbread.

Oh. Is this the donkey's?

-Does it matter?

-[laughs]

Yeah.

Oh, wow. Wow.

[Martin groans softly]

Here's your gingerbread.

I think in here's

looking pretty good.

Yep.

Time to do the same

to the kitchen.

Oh, boy.

[sighs]

[music turns sour]

[grunts]

[sighs] Gravy.

Always gravy.

[heartfelt music playing]

What-- what are you making?

Angel.

Ah, looking good, Bri.

[Brian] Thanks.

Needs more eyes, though.

Ah.

It's good to see that

you're getting into the season,

but let's try and make Christmas

more merry than scary.

-Okay, bud?

-Yes.

[both laughing]

[knocking on door]

We're closed. Sorry.

[knocking on door]

[sighs] We're closed.

The hours are on the sign.

[suspenseful music playing]

[door knob rattling]

[door clicks open]

-[panting] She's dying.

-What? Who?

-She's dying.

-Who?

What...

-[gulping]

-It's Mrs. Lay.

Uh, nice to meet you,

Mrs. Lay.

I'm Martin Greene. Um--

Oh. Oh, no, no.

I'm-- it's-- it's-- I'm Robin.

Um, this is Mrs. Lay.

[Mrs. Lay clucking]

-Uh--

-[Robin sighs]

Sorry for barging in

on you like this.

Um, it's just--

it's an emergency.

It's Milky Lay. I...

W-- we're closed.

You-- you're going to have

to come back tomorrow.

[stutters] Please.

No, we-- we've tried everywhere.

And-- and look

how worried she is.

-I...

-[panting]

[sighs]

Please.

The galaxy needs you.

[heartfelt music playing]

[sighs]

[grunts] All right then.

Let's have a look at you, then.

Oh. Let's see you.

Oh, okay. Okay.

Think she will be okay for now,

so please,

can you come back

tomorrow at 8:00 a.m.

when we're open?

Uh...

Dad, it's Christmas.

Um-- [clears throat]

[sighs] Robin, was it?

[sighs in relief]

Thank you.

Thank you.

Um, Brian,

uh, why don't you...

seat our guests?

Do you like hot chocolate?

Uh, oh, um...

[Martin] Um-- [whining]

[clears throat]

Sorry. Um-- [laughs]

I need my, uh, energy

if I'm going to do

a good job on Mrs. Lay.

Yeah.

Okay. Yeah. Okay.

[breathing heavily]



Okay. All right. Let's just

have a look at you.

Mrs.-- Mrs. Lay.

Okay. That looks okay.

[grunts] Okay. Let's see.

We'll see.

[birds chirping]

Amy.

It's good.

Needs more eyes, though.

Hmm. Yeah.

[door clicks open]

How is she?

She's going to be fine.

I gave her an antiparasitic.

Um, she'll be all right

as rain in the morning.

But I'd like to keep her

a couple of days

just to, uh, be extra safe.

Of course, yeah.

Thank you, Martin.

Yeah. [chuckles]

Um, did you get

your coop second hand?

Um, well,

yeah.

Yeah, um, I'd throw that out

if I was you.

That's how this usually happens.

Um, but luckily, I have the pots

for, um, a--

a new one you can have.

No, no, no. No, it's fine.

I don't need you--

uh-- you don't need

to do that at all.

I can-- I don't mean

you don't need to do that.

-I can--

-No, I insist. Really.

Uh, it'll keep you

out of my hair.

Uh, not that I want you

out of my hair.

Or in fact,

even have hair

for you to be out of.

Why am I talking about my hair?

I think--

I think I got what you meant.

It's-- it's fine.

[smacks lips]

Thank you. [laughs]

Is she alive? Did you eat her?

Uh, yes.

Uh...

Uh, no-- I--

no, I mean, um-- I mean,

she's going to be

absolutely fine.

Mrs. Lay is going to be

absolutely fine.

I was just saying

to your, uh, mum

that, uh, I'm going to keep her

for a couple of days

just so that

she doesn't get poorly again.

Thank you

for saving her, Martin.

Thank you. Thank you.

Dad, can Amy stay

to decorate the animals?

I am a bit of a visionary.

It's a little bit late.

Um, why doesn't Amy

come back tomorrow?

Oh, no. I don't know.

Um, I'm sure Martin

is busier than he lets off.

It's no problem, honestly.

Yeah, Mum. I'm a delight.

[chuckles]

You don't have

to do this, you know.

I do.

Um...

here's my business card.

Give me a call

when you're on your way

and I'll, uh, warn the animals.

Did your, um, printer

run out of ink, or...

Uh, I-- I couldn't find

the right design.

-Yeah. Uh...

-Oh.

-Okay.

-[Robin] I'll phone, okay?

Um, yeah.

Did you-- listen, um...

-Yeah. Um, yeah. Thank you.

-[Martin] Thank you.

And, um, thank you again

so much, Martin.

-[Martin chuckles]

-Come on, Mum.

[Robin] Okay, okay.

[chuckles] All right.

Lovely to meet you, Brian.

Bye, Robin. Bye, Amy.

See you tomorrow.



There you go. [groans softly]

So, you and Amy

seemed to hit it off.

She's great.

I'm happy to come back tomorrow.

Oh, yeah? Why's that?

Well, she's new in town

and hasn't got any friends yet.

-Everyone needs a friend.

-[Martin chuckles]

That they do.

My Briceratops.

I'm proud of you.

Thanks, Dad.

I'm proud of you, too.

Good night.

[somber music playing]

[rooster crowing]

["Favourite Thing

This Christmas"

by Friends Like These

playing loudly]

[panting]

More than the trees

and the toys

[sighing]

[groans]

You make everything

this Christmas

Got me tearing up my list

'Cause you're

the greatest gift, baby

You're my favorite thing

This Christmas

-[Robin chuckles]

-Morning, sleepyhead.

-Come dance with me.

-Uh, coffee. [chuckles]

You know,

I heard it's addictive.

Where are you getting

that information from?

You're my favorite thing

this Christmas

More than the trees

and the toys

For the girls

and the boys, yeah, you

You make everything

this Christmas

Yes! [laughs]

-Well done!

-I know.

Is that boy from school

still being a diva?

Who, Tim?

He just doesn't know talent

when he sees it.

I know he'll come around

when he gets

my standing ovation.

-How could he not?

-[Amy laughs]

Are you working today?

Yes, I have a drawing to finish,

but I'll be done by noon,

so I'll have

plenty of time to spend

with my favorite

little reindeer.

Rudolph?

No, Amy.

Don't tell me your favorite

is something stupid like Vixen.

Vixen?

What do you take me for?

You know, Mum, for a person

who draws animals for a living,

you're not very up to date

with your reindeers.

I will catch up

on my research immediately.

[phone buzzing]

So,

what does my second

favorite reindeer

want to do today?

Dasher?

Am I the only one

who sees the antlers?

Oh, come on, there must be

something you want to do today.

Aren't we going to see

Brian's animals?

-Oh, I don't know.

-Why?

I don't think Martin

actually wants us to come.

But he said.

I know, but...

sometimes adults say things

that they don't mean

to be polite.

So he's a liar?

Well, no, not exactly.

Great.

Best tell him

we'll be there after lunch.

You don't want Brian decorating

without my expertise.

[sighs]

I guess not.

Love you, Mum.

Okay. Hi, Martin.

Hi, Martin.

Hi, Martin. [chuckles]

Yeah, just hi. Hi. All right.

Hi.

[sighs]

[Martin] Hello,

this is the Greenefield's.

How can I help?

Hi, Martin. Uh, how are you?

[Martin] Uh, well--

Uh, I'm sorry, who is this?

Um, it's Robin,

um, from yesterday.

Uh, sorry, if-- if you're busy,

I can call back another day or--

[Martin] Oh, Robin!

Uh-- [clears throat]

It's good to hear from you.

-[Martin clears throat]

-It is?

No, I mean, um,

I mean, yeah, you too.

You too.

[Martin] Uh, let me guess,

Amy is pretty keen

to see the animals?

Yeah, yeah, she's, um--

she's-- she's quite,

um, persistent. [laughs]

Um, is it-- is it okay

if, uh, I pop-- I pop over,

say, one?

[Martin]

Yeah, that sounds great.

Great! Okay.

Thank you. [laughs]

[Martin] Oh, I'm sorry, um,

there's someone

on the other line.

-I'll see you later?

-Oh, yeah, yeah.

Um, okay, yeah,

I'll-- I'll see--

um, I'll see you later.

[Martin] All right. Bye.

Bye. Bye.

[grunts]

[ambient music playing]

[goats bleating]

[chicken clucking]

Mum, we're stopped.

You can let go of the wheel now.

Oh, yeah.

-Sorry. Um, shall we go?

-Yeah. Yeah.

Mum, you haven't moved.

Is this anxiety?

Wait, where did you learn that?

I was looking on YouTube

for asteroid [indistinct],

but got it wrong and watched

some really scary videos.

I am not an attentive mother.

So are you coming

or are you anxietied?

I'm coming.

Okay? I'm coming.

You say that.

Mum, we've been out here

for, like, seven hours.

-You're not nervous, are you?

-[Robin stutters]

They're nice friends, Mum.

Now, please, come on.

[knocking on door]

[Robin] Oh, that was quick.

You were outside

for, like, seven hours.

-It was pretty weird.

-Brian.

Not bad weird. Nice weird.

Amy, want to

come see the animals?

[Amy] That's why I'm here.

[joyful music playing]

Mum, look, it's Mrs. Lay.

She's up and talking

and making new friends.

Oh, wow! Look at her go!

Didn't Martin and Brian

do a great job?

Yeah, she's so much better.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

You're very welcome, Amy.

And anytime

she's under the weather,

you can always

bring her back to us, right?

We'll bring her here

all the time.

Yeah, she can get

to know Eggadactyl.

Hmm.

Fan of dinosaurs,

are you, Brian?

I don't get it.

Eggadactyl, like pterodactyl,

you know?

The giant flying dinosaur.

But, um, chickens

are flightless, right?

-[Martin sighs]

-Okay.

Um, well, Brian,

Amy is pretty into space.

Isn't space

just another word for nothing?

You're in space right now.

Were dinosaurs in space?

[both] Space dinosaurs!

[Martin chuckles]

[Brian exclaiming]

I think we might be

at this a while, so--

-Yeah.

-Hmm.

Um, uno momento,

s'il vous plat.

[kids laughing]

So, uh, while you guys

thrash this out,

uh, Robin and I

are going to get a drink.

Is that okay?

Yes, of course,

but now is not the time, okay?

Yes, Mr. Martin, sir.

Now is not the time.

As expected.

Um, give me a shout

if you need anything, okay?

[Martin sighs]

I've spoken

to the people in charge

and, uh, we're good to go.

[Robin laughs]

They aren't going

to m*rder each other, are they?

[Martin] Nah.

No.

-No.

-Hm.

[goats bleating]

[ambient music playing]

[chicken clucking]

[Martin] Gotta get

the kettle...

So, how do you take your, uh...

[spoon clattering]

...uh, coffee? [laughs]

Um, Americano.

Oh. Uh, very adventurous.

Sorry, can you handle

making a drink that isn't tea?

[Martin laughs]

Touch. [laughs]

Uh, can I get you any snacks?

Coffee and snacks?

What did I do

to deserve this treatment?

I'm very, very keen

to show off

my terrible cooking skills.

Sorry, so...

a stay-at-home dad

who doesn't cook?

Yeah.

Lucky Mrs. Greene.

Uh, um...

Actually, uh, Mrs. Greene,

uh, Tanya, um...

passed away.

I am so sorry.

I just-- I know,

I saw the-- the ring and I...

[sighs]

I'm sorry

for your loss. That's--

Uh, thank you.

Um, we-- uh, we lost her,

um, over five years ago now.

Uh, yeah, but, uh,

completely innocent mistake

and, uh, yeah, nothing--

nothing to worry about.

Um, tell me about your, uh...

Oh, the-- uh, yeah, I--

well, I had a-- um,

but that ended, like,

a while back, so, yeah. [laughs]

Oh.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

Mm. [laughs] Uh-huh.

Uh, I...

guess that makes us evens.

[laughs] Yeah.

I wonder if the conversation is

flowing as well out there, or--

Uh...

Aurora Bolealis.

Aurora Borealis.

Audible Boreas?

Aurora Borealis.

Also or?

Aurora.

Aurora.

Yeah, Aurora Borealis.

That's a made-up name.

All names are made up.

Whoa.

She'd never admit it,

but, um, she's very grateful.

Mm, Amy?

She thanked me,

like, 50 times outside.

-Yeah, for Mrs. Lay.

-Hmm.

I'm talking about for being

a friend to her so quickly.

We've been here

for, like, a month now, and...

Does Amy struggle,

or have trouble to make friends?

Oh, no, no,

not-- not struggle per se.

No, just, um,

some kids can find her

to be a little bit,

uh, like, loud.

But she has her drama club.

But I think they're having

some, um, creative differences.

Well, Brian's taken to her

like a house on fire.

It's nice to, you know,

as affectionate

about animals as he is.

Yeah. They're a good pair.

Right? Uh...

They are.

Uh, speaking of which,

we probably should,

uh, get out there, right?

Uh, yeah.

We-- we probably should.

[horse neighs]

So can you see them yet?

[Robin laughs]

Oh, yes, sweetie.

Okay. 'Kay?

And...

What am I looking-- [gasps]

Oh. [laughs]

Oh, my--

This is incredible, Martin.

Amy's never been so close

to a reindeer before.

[laughs] They're quite

something, aren't they?

Yeah.

Santa and his elves stopped by

to drop them off

just before the big day.

They are Santa's reindeers?

They sure are.

Whoa.

Uh, this reminds me

of your play.

-Play?

-Yeah.

It's the story of Christmas,

like in the Bible.

Oh, wow. Sounds serious.

-Who are you playing?

-Rudolph.

Oh.

Can we go, Dad?

Uh...

-Yeah.

-Sure. Uh, why not?

I mean, um, we could use

some culture around here, right?

[Brian chuckles]

So, how long

do you have them for?

Like, I would love

some up-close research

on the current project

I'm working on.

Yeah, unfortunately,

tonight is the last night.

Santa comes

to collect these in the morning.

That's a shame.

Why don't you guys

hang around for a bit?

I mean, I'm sure

Amy would appreciate it, right?

I'm gonna need a few hours.

-[Robin chuckles]

-She's gonna need a few hours.

Are you sure? No, no, no.

I really--

no, I really feel like

you have done enough

at this point.

[Martin] Seriously.

Um, mi casa e...

you casa.

Anyway, um, I'm gonna go

into town to get some bits.

I'll stop off

and get us some food.

Sounds great. I like meatloaf.

Amy!

No, honestly, it's-- it's fine.

I insist.

No, you really don't have

to do that, Martin.

-It, you know--

-It's fine.

Whilst I'm away,

B-Ri

will take care of you guys.

-Right, B-Ri?

-You got it.

Has anyone ever told you

you're too nice

for your own good?

All the time.

Look after them, B-Ri.

[chuckles]

[reindeers grunting]

[phone buzzing]

Hello?

[Martin] Uh, uh, meatbread.

What?

Meatbread. Meatbread.

Sorry, who is this?

Oh, uh, it's Martin.

Oh. [laughs] Hi, Martin.

Sorry, what did you say?

I've gone to every baker

in town,

and nowhere seems

to sell meatbread.

Sorry, meatbread?

Meatbread. Amy's favorite.

Oh, okay.

Okay, uh...

Insider secret.

If you whisper in the guy's ear

and ask for meatcake,

he saves it

for special customers.

Okay, well-- well,

I'm putting you on now.

On speaker. One second.

- Garon?

-Martin, no, no, no.

[Robin laughs]

Don't do that. I'm only joking.

Wait, were you going to--

were you going to ask him?

Well, yeah.

You're-- uh,

you're surprisingly convincing.

Um, you don't think, um--

you don't think

Amy would just, you know, be--

be, uh, okay

with-- with pizza.

Do you?

Uh, yes, she loves pizza, yeah.

Okay, that's good.

I can, uh--

I can get us some pizza

because everything

is going, uh, perfectly well.

[laughs] So, uh, yeah,

I guess I'll, um, see you soon.

Yeah, see you soon.

That you will. [chuckles] Bye.

What are you so happy about?

I am just happy

to see the reindeer.

-Me too.

-Me three.

[soft music playing]

[wind howling]

[door clicks open]

[all laughing]

Oh, my God.

[emphatic piano chords]

[grunts]

You guys had enough

of the reindeer?

Oh, we just came in.

Somebody says it's too snowy

just to sit outside.

[Martin laughs]

Did you get what you needed?

Yes, I did. Thank you.

-You want to see?

-Of course.

[Martin sighing]

Hm.

It's beautiful.

[chuckles] Thank you.

[clears throat]

Don't worry about us kids

starving over here.

Uh, right, of course. Um...

you guys go and play,

and I'll get started on dinner.

[fast-paced music playing]

Wah!

What, no chef hats?

[speaking with Italian accent]

I left it at the bistro.

I mean, that's a shame.

I was really hoping

for the full experience, so...

-[smacks lips] Uh, yeah.

-[phone buzzing]

[Martin] That's...

Yeah. [chuckles]

Uh, sorry,

am I keeping you from something?

Oh, no, no, no, no.

It-- it's fine.

No-- Um, that's, uh...

that's Amy's dad trying to--

trying to contact her.

And I'm guessing

Amy's not too keen.

Uh, not at all. No.

I mean, like,

he was barely at home,

and when he was, he was, uh...

loud.

When, uh, me and my sister

met our biological parents...

our dad was, uh...

an interesting man.

He had had a very hard life

and, uh...

I suppose...

once I grew up, I understood,

but him and my sister,

they never really saw

eye to eye.

And would she--

did she get over it eventually?

In her own way, yeah.

I mean-- [sighs]

I don't know if Steven

deserves a second chance,

but, um,

but it's really

important for Amy

to have a relationship

with her father

and I just feel like

if I don't do it now,

then it's just going to be

late-- too late forever.

You know?

It must be difficult.

Hmm. Yeah.

Sometimes I feel like

I'm drowning in an ocean.

No lifejacket.

Well, if you ever need a buoy...

[groans]

I am not normally like this,

I promise.

I hope that's not true.

[oven beeping]

Oh, sh**t.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Oh.

Um...

That looks delicious.

[sniffles]

[smacks lips]

[both laughing]

-Smells great.

-Smells burnt.

You get used to it.

[whimsical music playing]

[grunts]

I couldn't have pizza with you.

-[Robin] Oh, no.

-No.

[Robin chuckles]

-[Martin] Ay, hey!

-[Robin] Oh, no!

Gladiator, did I not eat him?

Oh, it's that dino.

Yes, I know who ate him.

That's me. [exclaims]

To pass myself around.

[Martin exclaims]

It's a good looking

human finger.

-Thank you, thank you. [laughs]

-[Martin exclaims]

Dad, can we watch

a Christmas film?

-Uh, it's pretty late.

-[Brian] Please, Dad.

I really want to show Amy

A Miracle on Victoria Close.

Robin's got to drive home, so--

Please, I've never wanted

anything more.

Never wanted anything more?

Please, Dad, please!

If it's what you really want--

-Please.

-Please.

[film playing in background]

[man 1] We're not gonna

make it off the ground

because of a little

bit of snow?

We're not even

supposed to be here.

[man 2] Sir, calm down.

[man 1]

Don't tell me to calm down.

I've got a little girl

halfway across the world,

and all she wants for Christmas

is to see her old man.

I mean, for crying out loud,

can't a guy catch a break

for once in his busy life?

He usually makes it

past the opening theme song.

[laughs]

I wish I could say

the same thing about Amy.

[both chuckling]

Okay, so now

they're both asleep...

I can finally ask.

Uh, ask what?

-[Martin clears throat]

-Do you drink gravy?

Sorry, what?

Do you and Brian drink gravy?

[chuckles]

Uh, um,

I feel like

an outright no would be a lie,

but I can say

I've never willingly

drunk gravy. [laughs]

-That's good to know.

-Hmm.

So what,

is it like a prank or something?

I don't know. You tell me.

You don't know what it is?

I have no idea.

I don't know

why it keeps happening.

Come on. Really?

I don't know why he does it.

I mean, he's a smart kid,

he can read.

This just shouldn't

keep happening. [laughs]

But the first time he did it,

he was so happy with himself

that he had made me coffee.

I didn't have the heart

to correct him.

And then it happened again,

and again,

and again, and again.

-[Martin laughs]

-I get that. [chuckles]

That's really sweet,

he's looking out

for you like that.

Yeah.

Yeah, he's been great.

Especially now it's just

the two of us on the farm.

[heartfelt music playing]

I'm sorry.

Yeah, it's, uh...

Adopting him

was the best decision

me and Tanya

ever made. [chuckles]

We got so excited, we, uh...

made plans,

we bought a bunk bed.

But, um...

yeah, things don't

necessarily go to plan.

I can't even imagine.

But, um,

Christmas is the hardest time.

Yeah.

But it does get easier.

Not that

I'm in the same situation

with you at all, I'm just...

No, I-- I get it.

I get it.

It's tough no matter

the circumstances, right?

Mm.

Is, um...

is this your first Christmas,

just the two of you?

Third. Third.

But, um,

yeah, it's got easier.

I definitely feel

a lot more, um,

like, prepared.

-That's a relief.

-Yeah.

Sometimes I don't know

how I've managed

to make it this far.

Well, it looks like

you're doing

a pretty good job to me.

[both chuckling]

Well, pretty easy

to do with him at the helm.

And no offense,

but kinda feels like

Amy's running the show

over there, too, so...

No, you're totally right.

[both laughing]

I honestly don't know where

she gets her confidence from.

Like, certainly not me.

Like, she says, "Jump,"

I say, "How high?"

So... [groans]

Yeah?

So it was, uh, her idea

to break in here after hours.

Okay, no. That was my idea.

But that was the most worried

I'd ever seen Amy.

And, you know,

I couldn't let her down

this close to Christmas.

So, you know,

I wasn't taking no

for an answer.

Uh, no, I got that

all right. Don't worry.

[both laughing]

Yeah.

But anyway,

I better get this one home

before she gets too comfy.

Uh, yeah.

She looks really cute now,

but wait until she gets

out there for an hour.

Yeah.

She's a challenge.

But...

thank you

for everything, Martin.

But this has been

one of the best days

we've had in a long time.

-[Martin chuckles]

-Yeah.

And, um,

Amy's finally made a friend,

which she, uh...

which she really needed.

Brian, too.

Okay.

[Robin clears throat]

Uh, let me help you

out to the car.

Oh, no, it's okay.

Amy falls asleep all the time.

I'm used to this, so. [laughs]

-Okay.

-Okay.

Okay, come on.

[Robin groans]

Bye, Brian.

Thank you, Martin.

[joyful music playing]



[door clicks closed]

[wind howling]

[rooster crowing]

[Martin] Brian? [grunts]

Okay... Brian?

Oh...

Brian?

[sighs]

[whimsical music playing]

More tinsel.

[laughs]

[goats bleating]

[Martin] There you go, lads.

And ladies, of course.

Let's not forget the ladies.

And itty-bitty,

bitty little ones.

Don't worry,

you'll get your turn.

For you, sir.

Some for you, sir.

Per chance, an appetizer?

Oh.

[Martin singing]

Mm.

-You ready for the big day?

-I was born ready.

-That you were.

-[Amy chuckles]

Okay, come on, Rudolph.

Come for your feed.

Mm. Mm-hmm.

[phone buzzing]

No! Please don't.

Are you sure

you just don't want to say hi?

Okay, sweetie.

I won't force you to do anything

you don't want to do.

Good.

Eat up.

Hi, Dad.

Hi, Briceratops.

[Martin laughs]

-How was school?

-Great.

I've been excited

for the play all day.

Oh. Good.

[chicken clucking]

Dad, what have you done?

[whimsical music playing]

[engine rumbling]

[Martin] Oh, no.

I didn't think

this through, did I?

Why did you

leave me unsupervised?

You know what?

I think it's great.

She loves the theater.

-Reckon we can bring her in?

-[Martin chuckles]

Don't think we can, mate.

We didn't get her

a ticket, did we?

[sighs] Shut up, Dad.

It'll be fine.

No.

No, we cannot take a hen

into a children's play.

[kids chattering]

Okay, Bri, the--

I'll sort this out.

Okay.

[heartfelt music playing]

Good evening...

um...

Collette. [chuckles]

Okay, so., um-- [clears throat]

This is, uh--

this is Mrs. Lay.

Uh, Milky Lay,

like the galaxy.

She is a hen.

[Martin laughs] A hen.

Um, but, uh,

it's pretty clear that

Mrs. Lay would like to see,

uh, the-- the-- the baby Jesus.

And I was wondering

if you could--

you could make that happen.

Okay. Um, yeah.

Oh.

Lovely to meet you, Collette.

Yeah, we--

[slurping]

[door shuts closed]

What type of person

doesn't let a hen

experience theater

at Christmas?

[Martin sighs]

And you're sure

she can't get out?

I'd hate to tell Amy

her chicken's dead

after the play.

Mm.

Hmm.

Well, assuming she doesn't

grow opposable thumbs,

or learn how to fly,

I think we might be okay.



[audience chattering]

[Martin] Uh, sorry.

Hey. We're here.

Oh, you made it.

I thought-- I was getting

a bit worried

for a second. [chuckles]

Oh, we wouldn't miss it,

would we?

-Oh, it's--

-Dad.

-Yeah?

-I need to go to the bathroom.

Uh, you went before three times.

I need to go again.

I had a little bit of juice.

Okay, cool.

Um, just be quick

and, uh, don't take too long.

Yeah, yeah.

Oh, is everything okay?

Oh, yeah, fine.

Um, yeah, kids, juice.

-Oh.

-Yeah.

[jazz music plays]

[teacher] Right. Now,

that is enough, you two.

Okay? I have worked too--

we have worked too hard on this

to just throw it all away now.

Okay?

You're my stars, all right?

You're my stars.

So can you just be

my shiny little stars

and get on?

Well, tell Tim to stop having

stupid ideas, then.

I was destined to play Rudolph.

[sighs] Well, Amy's the only one

who fits in the costume.

I can't work

in these conditions.

Tim, there are no small roles.

Only small actors.

That is it.

Really, Amy?

The truth hurts.

Real mature.

Where is that boy?

Oh, don't worry,

we still got plenty of time.

-Hmm.

-All right.

Hi, bud.

You brought her, did you?

No.

Okay.

Oh.

Are you excited

for the show, Brian?

Oh, uh, yeah.

Amy's been telling me

all about Rudolph

and how he helped Jesus be born.

Hmm.

What are they teaching

our kids at this school?

I think it's an attempt

to be non-denominational,

but I'm pretty sure

that word got lost

along the way somewhere.

-Yeah.

-[Martin] Hmm.

Oh, it's starting.

It's starting.

[Martin] Huh.

[atmospheric string music plays]

Whoa. Where are we to go?

It is dark

and I know not the way.

Hark, before us.

I see a light.

A sign from the heavens,

that star.

-We are--

-We are the three wise men.

-Caspiar.

-Melchior.

Balthazar.

We have learned

of the birth of a new king.

And we have

traveled to this place...

By the heav--

by the heavenly star.

They really broke

the budget on this one.

I heard Spielberg is attached.

-[Robin chuckles]

-[chicken clucking]

-What's that noise?

-[Brian clears throat]

[kids imitating sheep bleating]

Star, take Rudolph's light

and guide the wise men to the...

baby Jesus.

[kids imitating sheep bleating]

Amy's part is coming up.

[Caspiar]

Hark, the light from the star.

It fades.

What are we to do?

Shall we lose sight

of this holy beacon?

[Rudolph] Did someone say bacon?

Wait, I mean beacon?

Hark, who goes there?

Hi, I'm Rudolph.

I'm one of Santa's reindeers.

Who is this Santa you speak of?

You'll find out soon enough.

She's great.

Isn't she?

The material's a bit iffy.

Well... uh...

["Make It Raindeer"

by Alastair Garner plays]

Uh-huh, uh-huh, yeah!

It's the reindeer crew,

It's the reindeer crew

Uh-huh, uh-huh, yeah!

He's coming to your house,

'Cause every time he come

Made with love

by his little toy crew

And if you don't believe,

'Cause when this man's

You know

(Uh-huh, uh-huh)

h*, h*, h*, yeah

You know, I make

It's the reindeer calling

h*, h*, h*

-[music stops]

-[cheering and applause]

What's up, Brian?

It's Ms. Lay.

-What about her?

-She got out.

What? Out of the car?

Oh, me jacket.

What-- what do you mean

your jacket?

I've brought Mrs. Lay in

to follow the play.

You've brought Mrs. Lay

in your jacket?

Okay, okay.

This is fine. This is fine.

It's fine-- this is fine, right?

This is fine.

This is not fine at all.

This is not fine at all.

-[Martin groans]

-Is everything okay?

-Ja.

-Yeah.

[clears throat]

Ich bin ein super gut.

-Okay.

-Yeah. Yeah.

-Yes.

-Fine.

[choral music plays]

-Okay. Uh, okay.

-[small cluck]

Where is she now?

[Mrs. Lay clucking]

Oh. Oh, God.

Oh, God. [clears throat]

Oh, God.

-Oh.

-Is that Mrs. Lay?

That-- that could be any hen.

Any hen.

There's seven million in the UK.

It could be any hen.

Mrs. Lay?

Hark, the crib animals

have came alive.

It's a Christmas miracle.

[clucks loudly]

[kids screaming]

[chaotic music plays]

This is serious!

[inaudible conversation]

[mouthing]

Come here, okay?

Come to Mama, Milky.

Come to Mama.

Oh, hi, Martin.

Hi, Amy. Um, great play.

Uh, it's just--

uh, going to take Mrs. Lay

and go back.

[Martin grunts]

Oh!

Clearly she has favorites.

Sorry, everyone.

As you were.

I really need to

re-read the Bible.

[chaotic music plays]

Chasin' all the chicken

-Okay.

-That was amazing.

Thanks. I know.

Mrs. Lay was pretty good too.

Thanks for sneaking her in.

Well, you told us

that she likes to play,

so I couldn't let her miss it.

-Some Sunday, huh?

-Yeah.

It's quite some--

I don't think

she's going to let us...

let us in again.

So...

-It's all right.

-Yeah.

It's all right. Okay.

I guess.

-Sorry.

-That's...

So, on a scale of zero to 100,

how embarrassed

are you right now?

Well...

to be fair, mmm, pretty high.

Pretty high. Um...

yeah, I just hope no one from,

uh, from-- from PETA.

Pe-- do you say

Peetuh or Petta?

Oh, Petta.

Not gonna say it.

I hope no one from PETA

was in there to see that.

Yeah.

So-- so, uh, you know

how you were saying to me

that, um, you owe me

because, uh...

I guess destroying your

daughter's play

kind of makes us even.

Destroying? Are you kidding?

Amy loved that.

And if anything, I think

I owe you once more again.

Oh, that's, uh--

I don't know about all that.

-Uh...

-No, I do.

Um, how about I get you dinner

sometime this week?

Uh...

-I...

-I...

I, um...

[laughs nervously]

I-- I-- I'm sorry.

I d-- I don't know why

I-- I asked that.

I just--

I don't even know you that long.

So...

-No.

-Yeah.

No, no, it's...

Dinner with-- with...

you, just the two of us, um...

sounds delightful.

Um...

it's just that...

it might be a bit much for him.

That is

completely understandable.

I...

Can't we just forget

I said anything?

You know, honestly, I don't even

like you that much anyway, so...

Well, fantastic. Amazing.

I mean, I get-- well,

I-- I-- I am a mess.

I, yeah-- same. Same.

Anyway, um...

[chuckles nervously]

Yeah, okay, so I better--

I better get Mrs. Lay home,

before she forgets

what it looks like forever.

Yeah, yeah, that's--

that's probably for the best.

Yes, yes, for the best.

F-- for the best.

The best. Hmm.

Okay, um...

-Yeah.

-Yeah, okay.

And I'll just...

Hey, sweetie?

Hey, sweetie, we shouldn't be

here. Okay, go, um...

Where am I taking you?

Um, we're going to that--

-Martin?

-Yes?

Um, I wanted to give you this.

Uh, yeah.

Thank you for this.

It's... amazing.

It's-- um...

Uh, okay, sweetie. Come on.

Good seeing you, Brian. It's--

Bye-bye. Come on.

Let's get you home.

Get you out of this outfit.

Wasn't that great?

It was amazing. Very memorable.

Wasn't it so kind of Martin

and Brian to bring Lay?

She's a star.

She belongs on stage.

She sure does.

Can we see Brian

and the animals again soon?

Maybe.

We should go.

[indistinct chatter]

[Martin] Right.

[Martin] And knock.

[indistinct chatter]

-Hey!

-Brian!

Oh, my lovely boy.

What have you got there?

I've got your favorite.

-Milli Vanilli.

-[Kevin] Oh!

Wow! Oh, thank you very much.

Oh. My favorite.

We've got you a couple of bits.

-There you go.

-Thanks.

We didn't get you anything.

See, when I get this old, Brian,

my jokes will be just as bad.

Hey, little fella.

How you doing?

I'm all right, good old fella.

[both laugh]

-Come in.

-Listen,

I've got some, uh, brand-new

dinosaur facts for you.

Come on.

You'd better listen to him, too.

He's the same age

as the dinosaurs.

[indistinct chatter]

[Kevin] Go on.

So, yeah, um, we're quiet now,

but, uh...

we're expecting, uh,

this Christmas-January rush.

Calm before the storm, eh?

[chuckles] Yes, very much.

Uh, a welcome calm

before the storm.

I can imagine.

-How's Brian doing?

-Uh...

Yeah, he's good. Yeah.

I mean, he's looking after me

at the moment, but...

Hmm. He's--

he's a great little lad.

-Yeah.

-You know,

adopting him was the best thing

you could have ever done.

It really was. It really was.

And, Martin, how are you doing?

I'm-- I'm good. I'm good.

Christmas is, uh, tough,

but I don't need to

tell you that.

Yeah, it isn't easy

for any of us.

But me and Kev,

we really appreciate you

keeping us in your life.

Wouldn't have it

any other way.

Yeah, you guys have been

parents to me

as much as my actual parents.

You're an angel, Martin.

Never forget that.

Now, have you thought about

having Christmas

outside the house?

It's just that...

Brian loves our traditions,

you know.

I don't know if he's ready.

And...

the kid

has put tinsel everywhere.

Literally everywhere.

[laughs]

Just like his mum, then.

Just like his mum.

Brian's been telling me about,

uh, Amy and Robin, is it?

Uh, was he, now?

Who's Amy and Robin?

Just-- just some customers

that we had,

uh, that had a-- a sick hen.

Uh-- uh, yeah,

just some customers.

And do you always go to plays

with your customers?

Uh, no, but, uh, you know,

they wanted to say thank you,

and I obliged.

You know, do you-- do your

customers not thank you

just, you know,

by paying the bills?

That was very nice of them.

And, uh, Robin...

is she nice?

Uh, yeah, she's...

nice.

Oh, so she's, uh, nice, is she?

Well, she sounds lovely.

Do you think you'll be

seeing her again?

Um, I don't know.

Um...

-I don't know.

-[Miriam] Do you want to?

Would you like to

really see her again?

Yeah.

I don't know if I can.

Oh.

Is it a bit too much

at the minute?

You know, Martin...

our lovely, lovely Tanya...

you know, she was--

she was a lovely soul as well.

And you know as well as I do

she'd want nothing

but happiness for you and Brian.

Well, what do you think

Brian would want?

I-- I don't know.

I think you do.

You know,

he's been talking about

nothing else

but Amy and that Robin.

You know,

more than any dinosaurs today.

I think...

she's great, but...

I don't even know her.

-[Kevin sighs]

-[Martin] Hang on.

Well, you know,

that's the beauty of strangers.

You get to know them.

Are you guys

talking about Robin?

Dad keeps on making

really bad jokes around her.

Oh, God.

-[Miriam] Oh.

-That's right.

Hey-- Oh, hey,

that-- that reminds us.

Um, did you hear about

the farmer that won that award?

Huh?

Huh? Right, he was outstanding

in his field.

-[Martin] Oh.

-Oh, Kev.

I don't get it.

It's-- don't worry.

Um, and on that terrible note,

uh, I think it's time, uh,

we best be off, eh?

[Kevin] Right.

Thank you very much for the pie.

Any time.

Hey, Briceratops, I think

there's a Kevinosaurus Rex

on the loose!

[Kevin roaring]

Now listen, Martin,

don't you ever

apologize for being happy.

Especially not to us.

[Martin chuckles] Oh.

[Miriam] Oh, Kevin.

Oh, come on, then.

-Group hug.

-[Miriam] Group hug.

-[Miriam] Oh.

-[Martin] Oh.

Right.

All right, I'll text you

when I get in, yeah?

-Safe journey.

-Yeah, take it easy.

[Miriam] Bye. Bye, Brian.

-[Brian] Bye.

-Bye.

Bye, love.

Oh.

[chickens clucking]

Aunt Margaret did what

at Thanksgiving?

[woman over phone]

On all of the tables.

Why didn't you

tell me that before?

[woman] I've been saving it

for you.

Oh, she's crazy.

[woman] Well, that's

your Aunt Margaret.

And did you make

your nice pumpkin pie?

[woman] Uh-huh, and some of that

-favorite ice cream of yours.

-[knocking on door]

Oh, um, someone's

at the door, Mum.

-Can I give you a call back?

-[Robin's Mum] Yeah, sure.

Okay, I'll speak to you soon.

[Robin's Mum]

Okay, love you, baby. Bye.

Who is it?

-[Steven] Rob, it's me.

-Steven?

What are you doing here?

No, you cannot just show up

here like this.

No, I know. I know.

I just-- I knew

you wouldn't want me to come.

It's not me

who doesn't want you here.

Well, it's

nearly Christmas, Rob.

-I've got presents.

-Presents?

It's a bit late for presents.

You call up

looking for Amy two months ago

after not seeing

her for over a year,

and you think

that is going to be

a big fat band-aid

over everything?

-It's not like that.

-Then what is it like?

She's my daughter, Rob.

Now you realize.

No, you cannot come here

with presents

and expect to buy back

all the time that you missed.

She is not ready for that.

I'm not trying to

buy back anything.

I want to be in her new life.

Well, she deserves better

than to be ignored, Steven.

Well--

well, I want to spend

the rest of my life

making up for that.

She has spent most of her life

without you.

-You are a stranger.

-I know, Rob.

I-- I-- I can do better.

Ju-- please just give me

one more chance

to prove it to her.

[delicate plucked music]

Look...

I want you to be in her life.

But it has to be on her terms.

Of course. Always.

-Okay.

-[car engine revving]

I will speak to her

about you seeing her tomorrow,

but I am making

no promises, okay?

Thank you, Rob, thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

[heartfelt music plays]

Then I didn't want to

settle down

Till I saw your eyes

through mine

That you can be anything

But you want to be

mine tonight

So, if this is love,

then let it grow

We can just dance

and take it slow

We don't have to run

through the red light

But you never know,

we could and we just might

So, if this is not love

Then it's gonna be

love tonight

[music fades]

[groans] Um, come in.

All right, Briceratops.

How you doing?

Good. Just putting

decorations everywhere.

Yeah. [chuckles nervously]

What are you doing?

You look

like you've been sneezing.

No.

Uh... [sniffles]

Nah.

You're not allergic to tinsel,

are you?

[laughs] Of course not, no.

But if I was, I'd...

be in big trouble,

wouldn't I?

What's that?

It's, uh...

It's just tidying up.

Do you miss Mum?

I miss Mum.

Of course I miss her.

I miss her every day.

But...

I'm lucky

I've got you, aren't I?

You're strong enough

for the both of us.

Like a T-Rex.

Does this photo make you sad?

Sometimes.

But usually happy.

Happy?

Yeah.

You know how dinosaurs

aren't around anymore?

But when we play with your toys

or watch your dino films,

we can imagine what it'd be like

if they were around.

Yeah.

That's what

this feels like for me.

And when you...

put up all your tinsel

and all your decorations...

it's like part of her is

still here with us.

I've never really

thought about it like that.

I'll always be happy as long

as we have each other, okay?

Me too.

Good.

I like having Amy around too.

Do you like having Robin around?

[chuckles] Yeah.

But...

I'm not sure

Robin feels the same.

Oh.

But do you know

who will always be around?

Who?

-The Dadoraptor!

-No!

[Martin roaring]

[clucking]

You know Brian said

they have feathers in real life.

Hmm.

I mean, he would look a lot less

scary with a peacock's tail.

[Robin chuckles]

Can we visit Brian soon?

[man over TV] What part of that

is slow to you?

Uh, yeah.

Maybe.

But, um... [clears throat]

...Christmas is a busy time,

so it might be a while

before we can see them.

How long's a while?

[man over TV] ...finds a way.

I don't know, sweetie.

But I thought you loved

hanging out with those guys.

I do. They're great.

Um, it's just things

can be complicated.

What's complicated?

Well, things

aren't that easy all the time.

Like, things

just get in the way.

What gets in the way?

Well, we've only just met them.

And we've been

there loads this week.

I don't want to bother them.

How are we bothering them?

Can we just

finish this film, please?

Okay.

[indistinct speaking over TV]

Can we see them tomorrow?

That's loads of time.

-Amy!

-What?

I thought you loved

hanging out with Martin.

You always laugh at

his bad jokes.

And they're really bad.

Come on, now.

He can be pretty funny.

You only think that

because you fancy him.

What?

Where's this coming from?

You want to kiss him.

He's your boyfriend.

I do not.

Okay.

Well, maybe a little bit, okay?

But...

I don't think he feels the same.

Oh. Here. [laughs]

[heartfelt music plays]

[clucking]

[jazz music plays]

[phone buzzing]

Hi, this is Greenfield's.

My dad's at

the bathroom right now.

Can I pass on a message?

[whispering] Brian, it's me.

Amy, what are you doing?

I'm ending this silliness

once and for all.

By the end of the day,

our parents will be

best friends again.

Now listen closely.

-Dad, Dad, Dad!

-Wait, what is it?

It's Miss Lay.

She's throwing up blood.

What? Are you sure?

Yeah, Dad. We need to go now.

[mumbles] Why don't you get

Robin to drive her here?

She's fallen over

and hurt her leg.

-Are you sure?

-Yeah, Dad.

-Okay, okay, coming.

-Let's go!

Okay, okay. Come on, let's go.

Amy, Robin.

It's Martin and Brian.

Martin? What?

We're here for Mrs. Lay.

-What?

-Amy rang.

She said...

your-- your leg... Um...

What about my leg?

Well, I thought...

But she-- but she said--

What-- what did Amy say?

Amy said, surprise!

She's so much better.

Wait, what was wrong with her?

You don't need

to worry about that.

Just a little mix-up

with some red crayons.

The blood.

I am so sorry, Martin.

I do not know

what she was thinking.

It's okay.

So, now that you're here,

you may as well stay.

Nice try, Amy.

Um, I wish things

were always that simple.

But, uh...

But sometimes they're not.

Have a nice Christmas.

Yeah. You too.

[Martin humming]

Dad! We haven't put out the

cookies and the hot chocolate.

Hey, relax.

I've already done it.

Taken care of.

But, Dad, did you put out

real hot chocolate or...

Or...

Or gravy?

Wha-- what?

What, you mean you knew?

Well, of course I knew.

But...

[chuckles] b-- but why?

Well, you were really sad

and I thought I'd prank you

to make you happy,

but you just really liked it.

[laughs]

So all this time,

I could have been having

actual hot chocolate

and actual coffee?

[Martin chuckles]

Serves me right

for being too nice, huh?

Listen, Briceratops...

I'm sorry things have got

so complicated with Amy.

They don't have to be.

I know, but...

it's just that Christmas is

a really important time for us.

Our traditions, our decorations,

the hot chocolate,

the gravy. [chuckles]

I just don't want

any of that to change, yeah?

Good.

But I think adding

some new nice stuff

would be good for us and you.

What do you mean?

I haven't seen you as happy

as you are with Robin

in a long time.

I just want you

to have that everyday.

[laughs]

So what should I do?

Go to her, Dad.

[chuckles]

You are ten years old.

How are you this wise?

I had the best role model.

[Martin chuckles]

[both imitate expl*si*n booming]

I'm sorry, Mum.

It's okay.

You had the best intentions.

But, um... [clicks tongue]

...some things

just aren't meant to be.

Life's too short to not chase

the things you love.

When did you get so grown up?

-I'm ahead of my time.

-Yeah, you sure are.

Anyway, Mum, I heard that

50% of marriage ends in divorce,

and you've already had one,

so you'll be fine.

Okay, I really need to restrict

your internet access.

[Robin laughs]

Okay.

Okay?

Okay.

Yeah, I'll do it.

Yeah.

Yeah. Uh...

[laughs] ...okay.

[knocking on door]

[sighs]

-Hi.

-Martin.

-Um...

-I...

Robin, I have

something to tell you.

You terrify me.

Not like that. Um...

For so long I saw the future

as Brian's and Brian's only.

But since I met you...

I see a future for me,

for-- for us.

And that's why you terrify me.

You give me something to lose.

I know this is new for us.

I think we could use

something new.

I want something new.

Yeah.

[Martin laughs]

[Martin and Robin laugh]

Thank you...

for finding the missing piece

that I didn't know I'd lost.

[radio DJ] Good morning,

and a Merry Christmas

to you all.

Now, to get

your day started right,

here is our festive number one.

["Favourite Thing This

Christmas" by Alastair Garner]

Pines had fallen

from the family tree

A storm in a snow globe

made it hard to see

Glad tidings you bring

[Martin] [indistinct]

[Martin roars]

Dadosurus Rex!

[Martin roaring]

[goats bleating]

[Martin] [indistinct]

Hey!

Oh, look.

[indistinct]

[Martin groans]

You're my favorite thing

this Christmas

More than the trees

and the toys

For the girls and the boys

Yeah, you

You make everything

this Christmas

You got me

tearing up my list

'Cause you're

the greatest gift, baby

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

This Christmas

[laughing]

[Robin]

What-- what is she doing?

[Martin groans]

-Oh, a cool jumper, Bri.

-Thanks.

Me Mum made it.

Well, it's beautiful.

We'll watch them go up,

shine bright like a star

Like traveling kings, oh,

we've come so far

And I'll never let you go

I just need you to know

You're my favorite thing

this Christmas

More than the trees

and the toys

For the girls and the boys

Yeah, you

You'll make everything...

[knocking on door]

You got me

tearing up my list

'Cause you're

the greatest gift, baby

You're my favorite thing

[Robin mouths and clicks tongue]

This Christmas

Oh, hello.

Can I help you?

I think you've got this

mixed up, friend.

Uh, you knocked on my door.

Oh, what,

you think this is funny?

I'm leaning

more towards confusing.

-[Steve] Hmm.

-Steve.

[indistinct]

What are you doing here?

-I followed you here.

-You followed me?

Yeah, I wanted to

give Amy a present, but...

clearly you're busy.

Oh, you have no right.

Uh, still confused

over here, guys.

Uh...

what's going on?

This is Steven.

Amy's father.

Oh. Uh...

Hi, nice to meet you.

Yeah, I bet it is.

What are you?

Lawyer? Doctor?

Uh, I suppose, uh...

animal doctor.

Mm-hmm. Right.

I bet you've heard all about

Amy's deadbeat dad, am I right?

Not really.

Oh.

Can we have a word?

This is actually

between Robin and I.

Man to man.

Look, um, I'm just here to help.

I know what losing

a parent does to a child,

and I would never want that

for Amy.

I get it.

We can't undo the past

or be certain of the future.

I'm not here to judge,

but you know

what really matters?

What?

You need a bit of empathy.

You need to want a relationship

with Amy for her,

not for you.

And if you give her the time

and space she needs...

she'll come round.

Give this to Amy, will you?

You don't have to say

it's from me.

Um, I-- I--

I know she'll love it.

Thank you.

I'll make sure she gets it.

Merry Christmas, Steven.

Merry Christmas.

The past is mounting

like the January snow

I'm planting seeds,

so my tree will grow

All right.

Has anyone told you

you're incredible?

Like traveling kings...

Just a donkey.

I'll never let you go

[Martin] It's the dino crew!

Stanzas!

I just need you to know

-So, Amy?

-Yeah?

Why don't you...

open this present?

More than the trees

and the toys

Yeah, you...

"Every reindeer needs a Santa."

You got me

tearing up my list

'Cause you're

the greatest gift, baby

You're my favorite thing

Oh, it's a little

Santa hat for Mrs. Lay.

Oh, I love it, I love it!

I know family

can be complicated and...

no one can...

tell you how

you should feel, but...

I think your dad

would really love it

if you gave him a call.

Okay, Martin.

Mum, can I have your phone?

Yes, yes you can.

For the girls and the boys

[indistinct]

You make everything

this Christmas

You got me

tearing up my list

'Cause you're

the greatest gift, baby

[Amy] Christmas

is like a box of chocolates.

You never know

what you're gonna get.

This year Santa

got me a new best friend

and a person

to make my mum smile.

Thank you, Santa.

Oh, and Mrs. Lay loves

her new Christmas hat.

You got me

tearing up my list

'Cause you're

the greatest gift, baby

You're my favorite thing

This Christmas

You're my favorite thing

this Christmas

More than the trees

He got them gifts,

Made with love

by his little toy crew

And if you don't believe,

'Cause when this man's

in town he's gonna slay

Go knock to the bowl,

this boy's on a roll

You know

you're gonna hear him say
