Q: Are your reindeer sleeping?

A: Yes. Yes. Of course they are. That is why they are so still and quiet. Because they are sleeping and not for any other reason.

Incidentally, what did you think of those burgers I made earlier? They were made of beef. Pure, beef and nothing else.

They tasted like beef to me.

No, I've always had 7 reindeer. I don't think any are missing.

That's not blood. I must have spilled some red paint when I was painting the sleigh.

How about we stop asking questions and we go back inside for some more, delicious burgers?

I'll be there in a minute. If you hear a chainsaw, it's because I am making some adjustments to the sleigh.
