You're not answering

your phone.

Remember?

Look, I've come from work.

I need to get back,

so come get out here.

That's my analyst.

So sorry.

Santa, can you get

down here, please?

Please? Thank you.

Santa?

Are you there?

Mum needs you to ring her.

All right, every time

she contacts you

and gets no response,

she contacts me.

Yesterday, 17 times.

-Just do it. -Oh, don't just

stand there issuing commands.

I am an adult.

You are the furthest thing

from an adult that I know.

I need time to myself.

I'm asking you to do

a single thing, Katarina.

It's "Kate."

Whatever. Just ring her.

Contact her.

Give me one good reason.

You've missed five

doctor's appointments.

You've got one planned

for tomorrow, which apparently

you know about.

You have to be there.

She's also planning a dinner

to celebrate my promotion.

And you not ringing her

is seriously affecting my life.

Will you be inviting Alba

to the dinner?

Just ring your mother.

Christ.

(sighs)

Yeah, Jenna, it's me.

Listen, darling,

I'm sorry

to leave this message.

I just really need

a bed for the night.

Even possibly a few nights.

-You're my bestie. Please.

I know. -(grunts)

-Just...

-Hey, elf!

This is my elf.

Santa has elves, you know.

Little helpers.

I have nicknamed her

"Lazy the Elf"

because she appears

never to work.

-That's me. Mm.

-She could also be called

-"Crushing Disappointment

the Elf." -(laughter)

-I-I'm just... (clears throat)

-"Waste of Payroll the Elf,"

"Bleeding Me Dry the Elf,"

"Why on Earth Is She

Even Here the Elf."

(Santa speaking Mandarin)

(grunts)

(bird chirping)

-What?

-(gasps) Jesus.

-Where'd you come from?

-Well, what are you looking at?

Look, look.

There. You see it?

-KATE:
Oh. -Just above

the lip of the roof there.

It's quite unusual to see

a bird like that in town.

-Blimey.

-(bird screeches)

(groans) Damn it.

Here. Uh, I think

it just pooed in your eye.

Yeah, I think so.

-SANTA:
Goodbye, my people.

-KATE:
Sorry. Ow.

-(Santa speaks Mandarin)

-Ow.

-Where have you been?

-(groans)

A shitting bird

just shat in my eye.

-Oh. Is there a bird in here?

-No.

Some bloke was outside the shop

playing silly buggers.

Well, maybe you can focus

your attention

-on the silly buggers inside

the shop. -(phone ringing)

I know. Oh! My phone.

Sorry. Sorry.

I'm sorry, Santa.

Yeah, Jenna!

Yes! Thank you so much.

Thank you so much.

Thank you so...

I'll be with you around 8:00.

-Okay. You are number one.

-Get off the phone now!

Okay, I got to go. Bye.

Yeah, I'm just gonna get

the sh*t out my eye.

-I'll be right...

-Time to sparkle!
