[Jack wakes with a start and runs to the mirror, he reaches to stroke his once unfamiliar long, white beard only to realize it’s gone! He examines his face from every angle, and looks down at his stomach: sizable but not rotund! A jaunty Christmas tune begins to play in the background as Jack runs into the kitchen to see his beautiful wife looking sad and cooking eggs. Jack skips to her and grabs hold of her waist spinning her in a dancers twirl.]

Jack: “Cait! Cait! Get out the decorations, it’s Christmas Eve!”

Cait: “But Jack you banned all Christmas from the house, the night before last!”

Jack: ”That’s in the past Cait! I had this wonderful dream last night you see, and you were there and Kenny was there and...Bah! Who cares it doesn't matter now, because, I..I..”

[jaunty Christmas tune gets louder]

Jack: [singing] “I think that I love Christmas, more than yester-year! And I don’t want a Christmas, to miss us! This year!”

Cait: “Wait what’s going on here, are you singing right now? Where did that music come from, and [gasps] those decorations! Jack how are you doing all this?”

Jack: ”It's all gravy Cait-y! Just got a little holiday magic left in me is all, and we’re gonna need every bit of it y’know! [whispers] For what comes next...”

Cait: Wait! What comes next?

Jack: “Well the second verse of course! “

Cait: ”Now hold on just a sec—“

Jack:[singing] ”So bring out all the presents!...“

Cait: “Woah where did those come from, and did you just wrap these!?”

Jack:[singing] “Loved ones and good cheer!...“

Cait:”Mom? Dad? And all my friends!? Where did you...How did you all just?—“

Jack[singing]: “Cus I don’t want a Christmas, to miss us! This year!”

Cait: “Okay! this is all just too much, where’s Kenny? I need to lie down.”

Jack: “No Cait! We need you to sing, the last verse requires all of us!’

Cait: “What does that even mean? Besides I don’t even know the words!”

Jack: ”You do Cait, they’ve been in your heart this whole time. I’m sorry I broke your Christmas spirit, but that was the old Jack! So please, won’t you let the new Jack help you fix it?”

Cait: [nods]

Jack: “Okay then, take my hand and close your eyes.”

Everyone: [singing] “For in our hearts there’s ringing, joyful loud and clear! That we don't want a Christmas, to miss us! This year!”

Jack: “Cait you did it!”

Cait: “I can't believe it! The words just came right out! Thank you Jack, this is the best Christmas gift ever! But I didn’t get you anything!”

Jack: “Well...let's not be too sure about that..”

[Cait looks up to see Jack’s hand hovering mistletoe over their heads]

Jack: [waggles eyebrows]

Cait: [eye rolls] “Oh brother...”
