On Strike for Christmas Page #4

-Thanks.

-Good night.

-Merry Christmas.

-Merry Christmas.

Hey, hey, merry Christmas,

Mrs. Robertson.

Merry Christmas.

-Do you need any help?

-No, not yet, thank you.

Okay.

Where's the family this year?

Yes, that is a very good question,

Mr. Gregory.

Okay, well, if you need anything,

you let me know, okay?

-Okay. Thanks.

-You're welcome.

Market Place is unfair.

-Yeah.

-We want fair pay.

-Where did all the money go?

-Market Place is unfair.

We want our benefits back.

Fair wages and benefits.

Fairness. Fair pay.

-Market Place is unfair.

-Fair wages.

Thanks for helping me.

Oh, l'm glad to.

But l thought you always went

with the whole family to get the tree.

Yeah, well none of them

were available.

Why not?

Oh, girls, basketball,

and publishing deadlines.

You shouldn't have gone

by yourself.

lf l don't do it, it doesn't get done.

What?

No, it's just that tomorrow

is the Knittery's holiday open house...

...and l still have to make muffins.

Well, don't make them.

But it's the holidays...

...and everybody likes having

homemade stuff during the holidays.

Yeah.

l don't know if l can make Christmas

happen if l don't get some help soon.

What was the score

on the Warriors game?

They upset the Celtics 98-9 7.

-Curry hit a three with two seconds left.

-Nice.

What are you doing?

What's the matter?

Don't you dare.

-Chill, Mom.

-You ate almost all of these.

There's still some for you.

Didn't you see the note

that l put on them?

What note?

This note.

-We must've missed it.

-lt's not funny.

l was up all night baking these

for the open house...

...and now l have to go buy them.

l'm still mad at you for blowing me off

getting the tree last night.

l had to do that all by myself.

We'll make it up to you today,

won't we, guys?

-We will?

-l bend over backwards...

...to make Christmas and everything

else for that matter nice for this family.

And none of you seem to care.

l don't think you appreciate how much

work goes into this time of year.

You just take it for granted

that it will all get done.

Haven't you even noticed

how far behind we are?

Okay, look, all l'm asking for

is you guys to help me out a bit, okay?

So Christmas can be nice.

Sure, honey, whatever you need.

You're right, Mom.

-Our bad.

-Thanks.

lf you'll get the Christmas card

address list and staff gift list together....

Absolutely.

And if you'll go get

some new Christmas lights...

...and if you get the decorations

for the outside...

...and the tree ornaments

out of the garage....

-You got it.

-Then we'll decorate it like we used to.

-You can count on us, hon.

-Good, because l need you guys.

Family hug.

Okay.
