Hey, you have a customer.

Season's greetings.

Looking to buy a tree?

Uh, no.

Uh, looking to sell them.

Yeah.

We were here first.

Oh, man.

Yeah, I'm so sorry.

It's just we've been coming down

here the last seven years and...

May I ask where you're from?

Originally?

Mm.

Chevy Chase.

But we tree out of Bennington.

Oh, okay.

Yeah.

See, I... I just got out

of Hochelaga CCC.

Do you know it?

I don't.

It's a penitentiary

in Quebec, Canada.

Crazy.

Yes, sir. Yeah.

But right now

I'm trying to go straight,

you know,

for the very first time in my life.

Wow. Good for you.

You know, Laird's brother

just got out of rehab.

He was in rehab for oxy...

Which I cannot do

with you right here

across the street.

Oh, I don't want to have to do

anything that I'll regret.

Well, I don't really know

what you're saying,

but we're all set up, you know.

We're already moving bush

and we're just gonna stay put.

Sorry.

Okay.

Good understanding, bro.

Hey, what the f***?

You are gone,

or whenever I want, I take this

and I saw right through

your little f***ing neck.

It'll happen so fast,

you won't be able to open

your f***ing eyes.

Now you see that guy

over there?

I'm gonna get him to help me.

He just waved at me.

He just... Yeah, well,

that's what he does.

Season's greetings

from Canada.

Did you say "please" at least?

You know, if they call the cops,

we're done.

Oh, he won't.

I wouldn't be surprised.

Oh, that's all you ever

are is surprised.

Hey! Ho! Ho! Ho! Hey!

Argh.

Trees!

That was terrible.

- "Trees"?

I'll take care

of that from now on.

Woman #2:
"Trees!"

We need to hydro...

We need... I'm g... I just want...

Christmas trees!

Can I interest you in a tree?

We've got Christmas trees.

You don't want that tree.

Why would you buy this...

That isn't even real.

Ugh, that smells like a fire hazard.

Hey!

These are more

than just Christmas trees.

These are memories.

Get over here and smell

some memories.

Whoa.

I see a naked woman

in that apartment.

Oh, Dennis.

Oh, we got some naked jigs.

Man, New York.

New York City

at Christmas, Dennis.

Where you saw

the Flyers and Penguins

obviously some...

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

Oh, yeah?

- There you go.

...right there,

two teams that really

just can't stand each other...

- All right.

...the NHL this year,

obviously are a very

big cause for concern.

Canada is in a recession,

isn't it?

Trees!

Ho, ho, ho!

You need a tree?

Come on, look at 'em.

Smell 'em.

'Tis that t...

jolly time of the season.

Are you looking for a tree?

We've got trees.

I've got eyes.

Yeah, they're an amazing color.

What, are they purpley-brown?

No.

Regular brown.
