Kris: Hey, what's wrong with you?
Chris: What?! Hey, who are you?
Kris: I'm Kris.
Chris: I'm Chris.
Kris: What a small world, huh? So what happened to you?
Chris: Well, I don't really know. Last thing I remember, I was in Goldstein's dressed as an elf. Next thing I know, I'm in here.
Kris: Hey, that makes you one of Santa's helpers, huh?
Chris: Yeah. My dad was working as Santa, but he got fired.
Kris: Oh, that's too bad. Sorry. But it really could be a lot worse.
Chris: And how's that?
Kris: He could be me. I have rheumatoid arthritis. I had a really nasty flareup. Cold weather really kills me. But, you know, stuff happens in life, you know. Hey, you know, I was watching your family, and you should know it's really a beautiful thing how much they care about you. You shouldn't forget that.
Chris: Well, I guess you're right.
Kris: I know I'm right. Listen, why don't you get some sleep, kid, huh? And merry Christmas.
Chris: Thanks. You, too.
