Daphne: Don't you want to save the forest? Nobody gets a tree anymore, it's not cool. Grandpa Spankenheimer: We make enough money. Cousin Mel: Enough? Enough is never enough. Cousin Mel: In case you haven't noticed, Frank, your son suffers a dreaded affliction. Frank: What affliction? Cousin Mel: The Santa-Claus-is-real syndrome. He shows all the signs. Making lists to Santa, checking them twice, good behavior, falling asleep before midnight, I figure he gets it from his grandmother. Jake: You saw it, didn't you, Grandpa? Grandpa Spankenheimer: I'm sorry, did you say something? I was too busy watching Grandma get hit by Santa's sleigh. What a sight, sleigh comes out of nowhere, Grandma takes a header into the snowbank, sleigh vanishes, like the Ghost of Christmas Past. Cousin Mel: And that's what's known as an advanced case of Santa-Claus-is-real syndrome. Cousin Mel: All you have to do is sign. Grandpa Spankenheimer: Sing? Cousin Mel: No, sign. Grandpa Spankenheimer: Fine. Cousin Mel: So sign. Grandpa Spankenheimer: I'd rather sing. Jake: Who are you? I.M. Slime: Cousin Mel's attorney, I.M. Slime. Jake: You said it, not me. Frank: Here it is, the last of Grandma's fruitcakes. Rita: Is it still good? Did she use preservatives? Frank: Preservatives? It's a fruitcake.
