Moira: Well, this isn't right, you sitting here alone.
Johnny: Oh, I don't know, it feels pretty familiar.
Moira: Yes, I guess we've established a pretty grim tradition these past few years.
Johnny: Well, I'm not talking about these past few years, I was talking about the old days. Do you even remember how those big, lavish Christmas parties used to end?
Moira: I think that's the sign of a successful soiree, if you don't.
Johnny: I'd find myself standing alone, staring at the tree, and all I'd want... I just thought, in spite of all the hardship that... We found ourselves coming together, the kids, you, and me, as a family. And it just seemed like the perfect day to celebrate that. The perfect day for a Rose Family Christmas Party.
Moira: John, I'm sorry. On behalf of the children, for myself, I'm sorry, John. We didn't fully understand why this party was so important to you.
