What do you mean, yes? You're supposed to say no. No one says yes to that. I-- I- - I can't have you in my house on Christmas morning. What? Are you gonna sleep in the living room with my tree? Do I have to wake you up for stockings--? You won't have a stocking. You'll see me in my pajamas! No. And my dad's robe. No. Or are we supposed to get dressed for opening presents? I wasn't even gonna get you anything. Now my mom is gonna give you a sweater. And you'll just sit there while I open gift after gift. It'll be awful. My grannie pays me to eat Christmas pudding! I'm sorry, no, you just can't come.
