Nativity 2: Danger in the Manger! Page #6

Right.

Well, he's not here any more, is he?

No. He abandoned us.

Like you'll probably abandon us

in a couple of weeks' time

when you decide

that we're not good enough for you.

Mr Poppy, I'm here for the long haul.

I'm here to make these

kids' lives better.

Mm.

Do you fancy maybe going for

a sausage sizzler at the park?

- We always used to do that.

- Oh, I've got to get back.

My wife's quite pregnant.

I should really shoot home.

But maybe another night, yeah.

I'd really like that.

OK.

OK? We good?

Are we agreed?

Yep.

See you in the morning.

- Oh, Mr Peterson.

- Oh, hi, Lucy.

Oh, hello. Hi, Donald.

- How are you settling in?

- Not bad. Yeah.

Good. It's great news about the...

the Song For Christmas.

Oh. You know about that?

Oh, Mr Poppy's told me.

Right. Well, I'm afraid

I had to put a stop to it.

I thought there were

baby auditions this morning.

No, no, we cancelled them.

- Really?

- Didn't we?

- Did you?

- Did we?

Jingle Bells

Has he got any special skills?

Brilliant! Brilliant!

Is he any good on a skateboard?

No, no, no. No, no.

You're not putting a baby on a skateboard.

And then maybe a little...

And then jump off...

.. and into the crib.

Would you mind maybe

if we were to put a little beard on her?

No.

What about me covering the baby in meat?

Why would baby Jesus be covered in meat?

Well, Lady Gaga covers herself in meat.

She wasn't the son of God.

Has she got any tricks,

little party pieces?

We can train the babies up.

You can't train babies.

- We can send the baby to boot camp.

- We're not going to this competition.

We're going to go to the competition

and win it.

Yeah!

Ah!

- Does he know the way to Wales?

- Know your way to Wales?

I think he said yes.

He's just a bit tired.

.. open sleigh

Absolutely unbelievable!

At last.

Where've you been?

I think he's actually

certifiably insane.

I mean,

he dresses like a lunatic.

And the nonsense

that comes out of his mouth.

This competition...

Today, 25 babies show up.

We're not going to Song For Christmas

like I've said 250 times already.

- "No, you haven't. "

- Yes, I have.

- "You never told me. "

- Yes, I did.

- "You promised. "

- I never promised.

Don.

You're just insane!

Things are about to get worse.

- How can they possibly... Who's that?

- It's your father.

What?

He phoned a couple of hours ago.

He wants to

come and spend Christmas with us.

- He can't come here.

- Well, he is.

- For Christmas?

- Yes.

Why is he coming here?

Go and answer the door.

I don't want him shouting at us.

Answer it!

- At last!

- Hi, Dad.

What did you think I was?

A bunch of carol singers?
