SCENE: NORTH POLE KITCHEN
Mrs. Claus: You got everything ready for your big night?
Santa: I’m all set. (He sips some hot tea.)
Mrs. Claus: Are you going to change your appliance before you leave?
Santa: I am. I’m going with the one-piece Hollister tonight.
Mrs. Claus: What if you have to empty before you’re through?
Santa: I figure I can just do a quick dump over Mar-a-Lago on the way down the Florida coast.
Mrs. Claus: (Laughing) Think he’ll notice?
Santa: Unlikely.
Mrs. Claus: What’ve you got to give him for Xmas?
Santa: Oh, that was easy. A civics textbook and a copy of ‘Boost Your Vocabulary.’
Mrs. Claus: But the man doesn’t read!
Santa: They’re audiobooks.
Mrs. Claus: But he doesn’t listen either!
Santa: Do you have a better idea?
Mrs. Claus puzzles over it momentarily.
Mrs. Claus: Give him a Monopoly set. It combines his three strong suits: real estate, delusion, and other people’s money.
THEY LAUGH TOGETHER. MRS. CLAUS STROKES SANTA’S BEARD.
Mrs. Claus: See you later, Sweetie. (She winks lasciviously.)
THE LIGHTS GO DIM AS SANTA EXITS HEADED FOR HIS SLEIGH. REINDEER SNORTING CAN BE HEARD OFF STAGE.
