00:00:37 Good evening.
00:01:56 Very well. Merry Christmas, Doris. Merry Christmas.
00:02:50 We've really been fortunate, finding employment so soon.
00:03:43 You must keep in mind that your parole can be revoked at any time.
00:04:40 Yeah.
00:05:29 You know, I've a reputation to uphold.
00:06:27 Sure. I've shilled before.
00:07:22 For Christmas, I mean. Come on in.
00:08:14 and I want a duck--
00:09:09 I want a bike, a parrot, and a fire engine, and....
00:10:02 How did he get in here?
00:10:52 Okay.
00:12:00 What makes you think a bunch of kids are so tough?
00:12:49 You are virtually unemployable and I am trying to keep you out of trouble.
00:13:47 All right. Give that to your mother...

00:15:52 That's all now. Store's closed.
00:16:53 I suppose you wouldn't go for a musical teddy bear?
00:17:45 I'm Santa Claus, ain't I?
00:18:49 What happens if I don't deliver?
00:21:34 That's exactly what I was doing, if you want to know.

00:23:06 Mr. Chambers, can't you scare up just a little goodwill?
