Santa: Next.
It was little Mel's turn. His mother released her hand.
Santa: What'd you want?
Mel: Aunt Gert and Uncle Leo.
Santa: What?
Mel: Can you stop them from visiting?⁷
Santa: What?
Mel: My aunt's going to bring me another bunny pajama outfit.
Santa: You'll look ridiculous… And your uncle?
Mel: He's going to roll my knuckles badly.
Santa: I hate that.
Mel: Please.
Santa: Sorry, there's nothing I can do. Every family has an Aunt Gert or Uncle Leo. Yours, unfortunately, has both.
