English Tips, Listen Carefully - The Santa Clause

You guys have a great party, have a great year. Sometimes believing in something means you--means you just believe in it.

Come on, Dad. I wanna go too.

Whoa! How'd you do that? What'd it feel like, Dad? It felt like America's Most Wanted. Now, pull me in, quick. We gotta get outta here. We gotta go home. How do you start this thing?

This could be a really long night.

The Santa Clause: "ln putting on this suit and entering the sleigh... "the wearer waives any and all rights to any previous identity, real or implied, "and fully accepts the duties and responsibilities of Santa Claus... "in perpetuity until such time that wearer becomes unable to do so...by either accident or design." - What does that mean? - It means you put on the suit, you're the big guy. What if I don't buy into this Santa Clause thing? What if I choose not to believe it? Then there would be millions of disappointed children around the world. You see, children hold the spirit of Christmas within their hearts. You wouldn't want to be responsible for killing the spirit of Christmas, now, would you, Santa? You're missing the point. - What is the point? Seeing isn't believing: believing is seeing. Kids don't have to see this place to know that it's here. They just... know.

So, did I miss anything? No, we were, uh, just about to order lunch. Great! I'm starving. I'll have a salad and iced tea and dressing on the side. Uh, pasta and tomatoes, uh, and very light on the oil. Can you do that? And I'll have a Caesar. No dressing. And one of those home-made cookies, the warm chocolate chip. No nuts. And, uh, a little slice of cheesecake. Uh, creme brulee... and, um, hot fudge sundae, extra hot fudge. On the side. - Anything to drink? - Ice-cold milk.

Charlie, you still got the glass ball, right? Well, all you gotta do...is shake it whenever you want to see your dad.

You gave me a wonderful gift, Charlie. Listen, a wonderful gift.You believed in me when nobody else did. You helped make me Santa.

Merry Christmas to all! And to all a good night!
