Mwah... let's go to school,

big girl.

- # The blinds are pulled #

- Hurry up, mama... it's time!

What'd I tell you about

bothering me this early?

# With both of us,

this house might bust #

I'm comin'!

# And all this family #

I'm comin'.

# We're gonna have

a merry Christmas, babe #

- # A very merry Christmas, baby #

- Let's see what you got.

- # A merry Christmas, babe #

- Are all these for me?

# Very merry Christmas, baby #

Yeah, you been

a good girl this year,

so here... open this one first.

No, no, no... open this one.

Open this one first.

- Here!

- Look, baby.

# The old neighborhood

always looked so good #

And this one's for you.

# We say hello to the friends

we can and can't remember #

I know you want to do

hair when you grow up,

so I say you could

practice on her.

- # Then the handbells ring #

- Can I brush it now?

- Can I, please?

- Yeah, yeah.

Go get my brush.

# And then the children sing #

I don't get no sugar... what?

Huh?

# The fireplace

is on the embers #

And Netty, hurry up,

'cause we're already late

to your grandma's house.

# You and me

and all this family #

Mm... all these presents?

You didn't have but two pennies

to rub together last month.

Ain't you gonna open it?

Huh... well, whatever

you're doin',

you better watch out

before you end up

in a prison cell

right next to Netty's daddy.

Why don't you see

what you got?

You're acting like

a prison guard yourself.

- I'm just sayin'...

- I'm just sayin',

it's Christmas...

why don't you enjoy yourself?

# The old neighborhood #

# always looked so good

each December #

Remember that day?

# We say hello to the friends

we can and can't remember #

Thank you.

- Mama, where's your brush?

- Um, it's in my top drawer.

And, Netty, get a move on,

all right?

We ain't got all day.

I can't find it.

Well, it's in there,

but you gotta go.

Fine.

Bye, mama.

Bye... Netty.

Excuse me, I'm looking

for a Detective Dalton.

Oh, he retired last week.

Can I help you?

I'm Joy White.

I'm here to look at the book.

Yeah, he told me you

were gonna come by.

Uh, let's see here.

What?

Ride or die, right?
