SARA: Oh, good morning, Mr. Hobbs.
Good morning, Sara. That’s a nice purple dress. Very purplie.
DEB: Buddy! Congratulations! I hear it turns out you really are Mr. Hobbs’ son.
Hi Deb! Yes, I am! And you have such a pretty face. You should be on a Christmas card!
DEB: Oh, stop it! I hardly recognise you!
That’s because I’m wearing human work clothes. Isn’t it exciting?
WALTER: Today of all days.
Today of all days.
WALTER: I’m going to need coffee. Now.
Let me do it! Me, me me!
WALTER: GOOD MORNING TED, HI SAM
Hi Sam!
SAM: Yeah. I already have a boyfriend.
Well, you can’t have too many boy friends!
WALTER: Deb! Please! Be useful.
Where you going, Dad?
DEB: Why don’t you come help me put these documents through the shredder?
What’s a shredder?
DEB: It’s a machine that makes snow.
(S)No way!
WALTER: Read this. I’ve got a lot of work to do. Please don’t talk.
Dad?
WALTER: What?
Why is the sky blue?
WALTER: I don’t know. It has something to do with the sun, and ultraviolet… I don’t know.
Dad?
WALTER: What?
What does a rainbow feel like?

Dad?
WALTER: Buddy!
What was my mom like? Susan Welles?
GREENWAY: {snip} You’re hanging by a thread, Hobbs!
Hi, Mr. Greenway, I’m Buddy the Elf!
GREENWAY: I thought your offspring was twelve years old?
I’m thirty. That’s this many.
WALTER: Deb! Buddy needs a break, take him downstairs for some hot chocolate.
Oh! Can I have a chocolate monster?
DEB: A Chocolate Monster?
It’s hot chocolate with a chocolate bar on top. That way, when the chocolate bar melts it makes it more chocolatey.
WALTER: God? I’m a good guy. Basically. Could you… could you throw me a bone?
Snow!
