Lulu: “What are you hanging around out here for, Bean?”
Java Bean: “I’m waiting for the Christmas decorations to appear.”
Lulu: “Christmas decorations don’t just appear. Somebody has to put them up.”
Java Bean: “Oh. Who does that? Is it Santa?”
Lulu: “Umm, I don’t actually know. All I know is, it’s not Dada.”
Java Bean: “Why not Dada?”
Lulu: “Something about being accident-prone and falling off ladders and getting electrocuted, I guess.”
Lulu: “Maybe it is Santa. That might explain why we never have decorations here.”
Java Bean: “How so?”
Lulu: “Well it was before my time but I hear Dennis and Santa had a few run-ins back in the day.”
Java Bean: “So you think Santa never comes to decorate the house because of that?”
Lulu: “Well Santa does keep a naughty list. So we know he holds grudges.”
Lulu: “Can we go inside now?”
Java Bean: “No. It’s my first Christmas not being a street dog and I want decorations.”
Mysterious Stranger: “Decorations? I can help you with that.”
