A little entertainment for tonight's Christmas Eve.

Well, that just about wraps it up. It looks good.

That's not a very nice Christmas present, isn't?

Merry Christmas. Well, I guess all I can say is how much I appreciate this..

I just dropped by to thank you for saving my life.

Anytime I can do anything for you, anytime, any place, you just pick up a phone. Okay?

I've kind of written a little song, for your present.

Well, this is for two people. It's a duet.

I wouldn't want you to feel any special obligation in any way.

God, they'll go wild. Nicest Christmas present anybody ever had.

Well, they deserve it. You got the tickets for New York?

A little rough for the holiday traffic, but I pulled a few strings.

I thought before train time, we'd get a bite to eat and have a few laughs or something.

And from now on, you can do your dirty work yourself.

Well, excuse me one minute, will you, [name]?

When you're unhappy, I'm unhappy.

Now, will you let the rest of my life alone?

You're happy for the wrong reasons. And that's the same as being lonely and miserable, except it's worse.

I've got everything in life I want.

You've got everything you want except the most important thing.

You know, when you get an idea that's for my sole and ultimate happiness, there's always lurking behind it a little angle for you.

What are we wasting time for?

Please, don't quote me the price when I haven't got the time.

Just like honesty needs a little plus, fate needs a little push.

You needn't sound so patronizing. You sound just like a mother hen looking after a little chick.

Uh… Won't you sit there, and you sit right here?

They look well together, don't they?

I must tell you, you were brought here tonight under false pretenses. You should pretend that you're my [girlfriend/boyfriend].

[He/She/They] figured you'd never come to see us if we asked you, and you might if [name] did.

I don't know how I get mixed up in these things.

It must be beautiful this time of year in [place name]. All that snow?

It'll do us a lot of good, [name], all that snow and the fir trees and the clean fresh air and… Ooh! Great change of pace, just what we need.

Well, with the holiday rush and all there could have been a slip-up.

If we took a plane, we'd be sitting up all night.

We're not taking a plane. We're taking a train, a train on which we had tickets.

Won't you have a drink or a sandwich or something? It's long way to home.

We're not staying in New York. We're booked for over the holidays.

Oh, wonderful. Could you come up for a couple of days?

Might not be bad at that, you know. The snow-covered slopes, the skiing.

Hot buttered rum, light on the butter, snow.

I want to wash my hands, my face and hair with snow.

Snowball throwing, that's what I'll do. How I'm longing to ski through the snow.

What is Christmas with no snow?

Oh, like a baby. I always love sleeping on trains. Especially at times like this.

Will you leave it to me? I've got a whole plan worked out.

Is this [place name]'s winter playground?

Where's the snow? This is supposed to be snow playground.

We hope to find the snow here. We came up for the snow.

We're using the ski tow to hang the wash on.

Well, to put it in one sentence, people don't expect a [job's title] to carry firewood.

There'll be six inches of snow tonight.

We've got to stay up here and dream up some way of getting people to come into this place.

It's a great idea. It's half a great idea, anyhow.

Now, get this straight. I want the whole show up here in three days. It's for Christmas!

Everybody grab their own suitcases. Let's not get mixed up now!

Well, we have this show. Now, we have to close down for the holidays.

Maybe you'd sleep better if you had something to eat.

I've been watching those clouds, and there's snow in them.

Yeah, well, I wouldn't be surprised if it snowed overnight.

How are you gonna get a whole band up here by Christmas Eve?

Don't you think putting the show on will do it?

A real Christmas Eve show, all about how you're playing Santa Claus to the old man, you know.

Stick your nose in other people's business and eventually you find out things you wish you hadn't.

I don't want to do this song. In fact, I'm not sure I want to do the show for Christmas Eve.

There's certainly nothing for you to feel guilty about.

Let's get off the merry-go-round. If you got something to say, say it.

Be realistic. Who could you find up here to get yourself engaged to?

Don't you think we ought to kiss or something?

This calls for champagne!

Well, don't just stand there. Aren't you going to kiss the bride?

Here. Let's drink to their happiness, huh?

When you get back to the inn, would you give this to [name]?

On Christmas Eve, we're gonna have a lot of special guests coming in here.

Well, yeah, because I'm a lonely, miserable, unhappy man. I don't want to be alone on Christmas.

Why do people have to stick their noses in other people's business?

The two of us were having some laughs together, and they thought we were in love with each other.

I know it's murder asking you to leave your homes on Christmas Eve just to be here...

What I am offering you is a chance to have the nicest Christmas gift you'll ever get, if only you come.

Hurry up now. You haven't got much time to get ready!

Hey! Merry Christmas!

Remember, hold those candles up good and high for me, aren't you?

of course he wouldn't trust her. then again, it isn't uncommon for some to not trust her. the troublemakers know she has a distaste for their behavior. the cheerleaders tend to avoid her because she doesn't care who angie slept with last weekend in their shitty car in front of the bowling alley. and the guys on the debate team are just mad she keeps one upping them. if she was honest, desiree had friends. but she also had people who rolled their eyes when she walked by them to her locker. and she's sure billy was one of them. at one point, she wouldn't have cared. but watching her little brother and how he cared for max. well, it made desiree wonder if billy wasn't just rough around the edges like max was. if maybe, they weren't such enemies. if perhaps, they shared some of the same emotions.
