  Tom : Shepherd's gotta protect his flock.

• Jordan : We know you still believe in the big fat creeper!

  Max : I don't know what you're talking about!

  Stevie : [pulls up Max's letter to Santa]  Are you sure about that?

  Beth Engel : [Max tries to get his letter back; Beth stops him]  Stop!

  Stevie : [reading]  "Dear Santa, I know I haven't been great this year and I'm sorry for that, but I was really hoping you can help out me and my family this Christmas. We need you!" Oh, Maxi Pad. That is so s...

  Beth Engel : [stops him from getting his letter back]  Stop, Max!

  Stevie : Blah blah blah. Bullshit, bullshit. Ah, here we go, Maxi's wish list!

  Beth Engel : Stevie, stop! That's enough!

  Stevie : Wait, you're up first, Beth!

  [reading] 

  Stevie : "I wish me and Beth could hang out like we used to."

  [Beth turns her head to Max] 

  Stevie : "Might've noticed that I don't have tons of friends."

  [she pretends to feel sorry for him and Jordan mockingly smiles] 

  Stevie : Oh, no, really Max?

  [Jordan laughs and she continues reading] 

  Stevie : "I wish my Mom and Dad could fall in love again."

  [Tom and Howard look at each other] 

  Stevie : "I know they get upset a lot with Dad away from home so much. I think they really just miss each other."

  [Linda enters] 

  Stevie : "Also, I wish things weren't so hard for Uncle Howard and Aunt Linda."

  [Stevie and Linda look at each other] 

  Stevie : "So, maybe you can lend them a hand for the rest of the year."

  Stevie : "And... and that..."

  [angrily] 

  Stevie : Screw you, Dad does not wish we were boys!

  Sarah Engel : [smilingly enters with carambola]  Who wants carambola?

  [Beth turns her head to Sarah and Sarah stops smiling on realizing the situation] 

  Max : [angrily gets off his chair to get his letter back]  Give me the letter!

  Tom : Hey! Max?

  [Max fights with Stevie and Jordan with the adults talking in the background] 

  Howard : [pulls Stevie and Jordan back]  All right, that's enough!

  Tom : You okay? Honey!

  Max : I just wanted Christmas to be like it used to be, but forget it! I hate Christmas! I hate all of you!

  [angrily and tearfully runs up to his room] 

  Sarah Engel : Max? Max!

  Aunt Dorothy : Oh, lay off of him!

  [Max slams his bedroom door] 

  Aunt Dorothy : Kid deserves a prize for telling the truth!

• Max : I don't get it. Every year it gets worse. Why do we have to put up with their crap just because we share DNA?

  Tom : Because that's what a family is, Max. People you try to be friends with, even though you don't have a whole lot in common.

  Max : But why?

  Tom : *Because*... well...

  [pauses to think] 

  Tom : Okay, you kind of got me there.

• Tom : And was drop-kicking him into the manger really the best way to handle this?

  Max : Okay, that was not my fault. I was under the influence. All I had to eat was Christmas fudge and candy canes.
