Sylvia Everyone's just so petite.
No, Tom Cruise is petite, these guys are short! What's the deal?
Have you ever been to this part of Canada?
We got as far as Rochester in upstate New York to see Syliva's sister in '67, but no.
They can't help the way they look up here. It's a bit rude to make fun of an entire country, don't you think?
Chococinos anyone?
Sylvia Oh, yes. [Jack pulls out her chair; sits down]
Sylvia Mmm, minty.
Doesn't it make you feel refresh?
Sylvia Yes, it does! [drinks some more]
Oh my, I just love your hair.
Sylvia You do?
Yeah, I do.
Sylvia I love yours.
You do?
Sylvia Yeah, I do. I've never seen anything like it.
Oh, you're so adorable. You divine little kitten you. [woofs flirtatiously; Sylvia giggles] I bet you can sing.
Sylvia No, no, no, no, no.
Oh, come on, I bet you can sing.
Sylvia Mmm, a little.
I knew it! I knew it! Sing something for me.
Sylvia What do you want to hear?
How about [singing] chestnuts roasting on an open fire.
Sylvia Jack Frost nipping at your nose. [continues singing rest of the lyrics]
No, no. Go back to the other line, the one before the first one.
Sylvia Jack Frost nipping at your nose.
Ooh, it gives me the chills.
Sylvia Jack Frost nipping at your nose.
Oh, what a lyric! [Carol walks in]
Hey, guys, what's going on?
Your mother is fabulous! [Sylvia playfully pinches his nose] Would you like to be my elf?
Sylvia Huh?
You heard me.
Sylvia What a quaint little village. Everyone's just so petite.
No, Tom Cruise is petite, these guys are short! What's the deal?
Who? What? Um...Oh, uh...Have you ever been to this part of Canada?
No, it's too far. We got as far as Rochester in upstate New York to see Sylvia's sister in '67, but no.
Very lovely place. But it's not Canada, is it?
No.
Well, this is...this is what Canadians look like.
Sylvia Oh, honey.
Bud, what is that supposed to mean?
Well, maybe if you weren't working all the time, you would know.
Well, maybe you don't understand the pressure I'm under!
Well, maybe it's not as bad as being ripped away from your family and told you can't see them anymore!
Well, maybe that's why I invited you up here, Bud. So Carol can be surrounded by her family for love and support, while I try to do things you can't even imagine. But rather than try to make things work, it seems like you're trying to make things worse.
Sylvia Maybe we shouldn't have come.
Maybe you're right. Maybe you shouldn't have come.
Don't say anything, you'll regret. [Carol leaves to sit down] I think we all need to cool down for a second. Huh? [to Scott] Why don't you and I take a walk? Come on. Let's go. Let's just go. [leaves with Scott]
Sylvia Oh, sweetheart.
It's over. I thought I had a second chance at having a family, but I blew it again.
Hey. There's no one I know who could possibly hold this all together but you.
But I didn't. My in-laws resent me, Christmas is a disaster, and my pregnant wife wishes that she never had met me.
You know, I-I was gonna wait until tomorrow to give you this, but, uh, heh, I-I think you need a bit of a pick-me-up now. [pulls up his present to Scott]
I can't.
Come on. Open it.
I don't feel like it, Jack.
Oh, come on. Go ahead, it'll make you feel better.
I don't feel like it, Jack.
Come on, you just open it, please.
So are there times when you wonder...
Wonder what?
If this was even...
Worth it? [scoffs] More than you know.
Wish I'd never put that red coat on.
So...you wish you'd never become Santa at all?
At all?
At all. At all. [opens his present] Yeah, at all. I wished I'd never been Santa at all. Happy? [notices he's holding his snow globe which starts to glow]
