Quote from Will

Will: Freeze, munchkins!
Santa Claus: They're not munchkins, son, they're elves.
Will: Oh, yeah? Who are you, Keebler?
Santa Claus: [laughs] Oh, boy, you're not even close.
Will: All right, look here, dude. Check it out. Um I'm about to give a little ring-a-ding-ding to Bel-Air Security. So if you and any of your little friends took anything, you better put it back.
Santa Claus: Now, you hold on there, young man. Nobody talks to Santa Claus like that.
Will: Oh, I'm sorry. Santa Claus. Right on, yeah. Everybody knows Santa Claus is a Clippers fan.
Santa Claus: I am not. I just can't move these things. Now, you listen to me, sonny. I don't usually make off-season visits but you were about to do something terrible to your cousin Nicky. You don't have any idea what I'm talking about, do you?
Will: No.
Santa Claus: No, of course you don't. Maybe this year I'll put a brain in your stocking.
Will: Why do these make-believe guys keep pushing me?

Quote from Will

Santa Claus: Come on over here. Sit down, right here.
Will: Unh-unh. [chuckles] Now, what are you talking about with Nicky?
Santa Claus: Will, being a child today is tougher than any time that I can remember. But, Nicky... Nicky is blessed with a very precious gift. Innocence. And you were about to take that away from him.
Will: No, I didn't wanna do that. I just don't want him to be mad at me forever.
Santa Claus: Aw, Will, nothing is forever with children. They grow up and they forget. Hey, remember something you used to believe in me once. Maybe you ought to try believing in me again. [chuckles] Oh, here, here. You be a good boy. And tell Carlton to stop faxing me. I cannot get him into Princeton.

Quote from Will

Nicky: Will! Will!
Will: Nicky. Nicky. Hey.
Nicky: Santa was here. Did you see him?
Will: Uh, yeah, we was kicking it in the pool house.
Nicky: You know Santa?
Will: Know him? Who do you think gave him the idea for that mistletoe thing?
Nicky: You?
Will: Oh, yeah. See, we was chilling back in Philly one night. It was me, Santa, the tooth fairy and Shaft, right?
Nicky: Who's Shaft?
Will: Who's Shaft? Oh, Nicky, there's so much I got to teach you. See, Shaft was a complicated man.
