Maria Costa, Dad.

Did she get the blue one?!

Little bro, it's great to have you around.

You bring a genuine aura

of seasonal positivity.

Thanks, Steve.

But could you not be

in Mission Control...

...at all for the rest of the night?

Yeah.

-All right?

-l'll never walk...

Right.

Sorry if l....

Brilliant.

They should put him...

-...somewhere out of harm's way.

-What, like the South Pole?

Waker!

We have a waker!

And Santa's in there!

Code red.

Repeat:
code red.

Santa? Are you here?

Steve?

Hold on, Father.

lntel! Get me lntel!

Santa's head seems to be resting...

...on some sort of "try me" button, sir.

lt's the Quack Quack Moo

Activity Farm, sir.

lt features 12 separate animal sounds.

-Sings "Old MacDonald Had A Farm."

-The moment...

...your father lifts his head, there'll be

1 0 seconds of constant mooing.

Risk of mooing:
98 percent.

Captain Marino...

...you'll have to take the batteries out.

He'd have to get past...

...the wrapping, the box and 14 twist ties

anchoring it to the cardboard.

lt's too noisy!

lt'll wake the boy! He'll see Santa!

Remember 1 816...

...when Santa was seen.

They tracked him home.

He had to go into hiding.

No Christmas for six years.

The elves all alone!

The elves alone!

Calm, people!

lt's not 1 81 6 now.

Marino, your HOHO

is equipped with state-of-the-art...

...EMF sensor technology hacked directly

from the military's missile program.

l want you to locate the batteries...

...and perform a Level 3

giftwrap incision.

Go in through the robin.

lncising robin.

Big girl's blouse.

Lot of fuss.

l did my 70 missions...

...without any of this malarkey.

Didn't we, lad?

-Twist ties clear.

-Can l watch with you, Grandsanta?

Shut the door!

Hell's berries...

-...it's the North Pole!

-Kid still asleep? He mustn't see Santa.

-Dad would rather die than spoil it.

-What if you...

...wake the odd nipper? A whack...

...with a sock of sand,

dab of whiskey on the lips...

...they don't remember.

-Screwdriver elf.

-Yes!

What happened...

...to going down the "chimbley"?

Never did me any har--

Get off me!

You smell like a wet elf.

Goodness! Down, boy! Basket.

Here you are, Grandsanta.

l've made you a nice mince pie.

l can't eat that. lt gets in me teeth.

Oh, dear.

Now l've got to visit...

...the elf hospital...

...look over a treaty with Greenland

and make the gravy.

Then we'll finally have

the whole family home for Christmas.

They're nearly done!

-Battery clear.

-Oh, no.

lt's the detachable milk maid!

-She's got her own power source!

-Five seconds...

...till she starts singing!

Four!

Three!

Two!

One!

Use your HOHO. Exit...

...code 1 2. Code 12!
