after your last class?
That could work.
Why don't you meet me in the science room?
Great.
No, absolutely.
Great, looking forward
to it.
Thank you.
See you then.
Bye, Charles.
Bye.
Oh, looks good. What are
Um, it is for a special needs
student from another school.
Oh, good for you.
Adam, would you like
a chocolate muffin?
Sure.
I'll take one
of those.
Sure.
What's the damage?
Uh, five dollars.
Whoa. It's a good thing
we're not buying a dozen.
Well, what goes around comes
around, Mrs. Claymore.
Thank you, Steven.
You're welcome.
I'll hold onto it
for ya.
See ya.
Bye.
Um, Mr. Morgan...
Five minutes of your time
would be really cool.
All right.
It has to do with
Mrs. Claymore's son, Adam.
Oh yes, she told me about you boys
building that ramp for her son Adam.
Did Farley really
help you with that?
Well, we were kinda
forced by Mr. Frost,
but once we started it felt
really good to help out.
Well, that's
very impressive, Steve.
What can I do to
help you?
Well, um, we're trying to
raise money to
get one of these amazing
chairs for Adam Claymore.
Uh, this is my
business plan.
Hmmm.
That's terrific.
Getting a company to
match funds.
That's uh,
that's very smart.
I was hoping you'd know of some company
that would be open to helping us.
Not that I'm trying to put
the bite on you, Mr. Morgan.
You didn't, I put the
bite on myself, okay.
Awesome.
Who's the adult handling
the business end?
Mr. Frost.
Well, tell Mr. Frost to
give me a call
and we'll work out
all the details.
Awesome.
Is uh, is Farley helping
you with this as well?
To be honest with you he's
Yeah, join the club.
He says the guy's working as a
janitor over at Riverbrook.
I know, Farley told me
when he sent the prints.
Okay, what is it
you want me to see?
This looks like any old fingerprint to me.
You're the expert, Neil.
Do you have
the prints up on screen?
Okay hang on
a minute.
Now zoom in on them.
Are those words?
That's right, it looks like
the kid pulled on over on ya.
No, no I don't think
the kid set me up.
I think I found
the real Santa Claus.
The mystery Santa Claus has been
visiting malls all over the state,
spreading his message
about giving,
and the people are
responding in droves.
Videotape shot
last night at this mall,
is being broadcast
all over the world.
This mystery Santa is changing the
I say mystery because no
one knows who this man is.
Once again, his message of giving rather
than receiving has become so popular,
that department store Santas across
the country are being instructed to
use the same approach.
Tune in tomorrow
when I reveal the identity
of the mystery Santa.
This is Eric Simms,
reporting for WALQ.
Please be bluffing.
Krissy Krissy Krissy
Krissy Krissy Krissy!!!
AHHHHH!
That's, uh, not good.
Okay...
KRIS!!!
Oh boy!!!
I can't believe you know how to add
and subtract numbers with just a pen.
Well it's something new. Ho, ho, ho!
Yes, well okay.
Factoring in the money
we have coming in,
divided by the amount
of time we have left.
Right, right, right.
But, but don't forget
the wheelchair folks
are cutting us a deal.
So knock 25%
off the original cost.
Oh, we're still
$3,800 short.
Oh...
But that's better than
we were doing yesterday.
Yeah, the trouble is we're
not playing horseshoes.
You're not giving up,
are you?
No way. You kidding me, I
just got my mojo working.
Okay, so what are you gonna do next?
Another bake sale?
Well half the kids in this
school are on sugar shock, so...
Oh wait, um, car wash. I could
get that organized in an hour.
That'd be great,
go for it!
All right.
I loved Kipling's poem.
The dude could write.
Do you think you're risking
your heart, as Kipling put it?
Loving a dog, and knowing
they have a short life.
I think there's a risk of hurt
whenever you love someone.
Yeah, I guess we've
both learned that.
I guess we did.
Hey, Adam.
Hey, you know I saw
an amazing thing
on television the other night.
A Santa in a mall.
And in every picture they took
of him, he looked different.
Yeah, I saw that too. Do you
think he's the real Santa?
I wouldn't be
surprised.
So you think
Santa exists?
I believe he exists
if you want him to exist.
Whenever you do something
special for someone you love,
that's saying that you
believe in Santa Claus.
But I don't have
very much money.
You don't need to
buy anything.
You only need to give
something of yourself.
Giving your love. It's the
greatest gift of all.
See ya later.
Oh, car was...
Hey, oh car wa...
Aaahhh...
Car was... aw, come on. We
haven't had a car in two hours.
Well it's gonna rain
later on in the week
and maybe
people don't want to
wash their cars
if it's gonna rain later.
Well, I'll
catch you later.
Where are you
going?
To see a man.
He went to see
a man about what?
My question exactly.
Where have you
been?
Uh, okay. A cheque for $3,800.
That should put
us over the top.
You sold
your drums.
I'll get some more
someday.
I want you to
hear this.
We wish you
a Merry Christmas!
What's that mean?
It means you done good, kid.
You done real good.
Merry Christmas,
ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho!
He's much better at it
than I am.
Adam? Adam?
Honey, what happened?
I tried to make you a Christmas dinner,
but everything fell out of the cabinet.
I'm sorry, mom,
I'm so sorry.
It's okay. You tried to
make me Christmas dinner?
Yes, and now it's all ruined.
I can't do anything right.
It's perfectly all right.
It's wonderfully all right.
It's the most wonderful present
anyone's ever given me.
I love you, mom.
I love you too,
sweetheart.
Merry Christmas.
We wish you
a Merry Christmas!
We'll make it
together okay?
Okay.
Okay.
Two down, and twenty-four
hours until the finish.
I'll miss you too.
tuck away.
Don't ever forget them.
And Farley, don't you let him.
Enjoy those memories.
But don't let them
consume you.
Life.
What a wonderful word.
Life is for the living.
So promise me you both, will make
room in your heart for new memories.
Now my darlings,
know that I love you.
And know that love, should
never be a solitary act.
It's for sharing.
So please, share it
with each other.
Farley, I uh,
I want you to give me
something for Christmas.
But it's Christmas Eve, there's
