Robot Chicken, Season 5

Billy:
[in bed] Dad, is Santa Claus real?

Billy's Dad:
Of course, Santa Claus is real. Who do you think? He brings you your presents.

Billy:
Does he always live in the North Pole?

Billy's Dad:
Actually, he grew up right here in Chicago. [the scene shows Santa plays baseball] He even played for the Cubs.

[Cut back to Billy and his dad]

Billy:
Wow! Tell me more about Santa!

Billy's Dad:
Well, let's see. Oh, he loves Robot Chicken! He's even done voices on the show.

[Cut to Santa at the studio]

Santa Claus:
[recording his voice] You worthless d-bags wouldn't let him play your reindeer games.

[Cut back to Billy and his dad]

Billy:
He sounds funny! Do you think he would've been friends growing up?

Billy's Dad:
Sure! He was just like you! [the scene shows Santa as a baby] The apple of his parents' eye. [cut back to him and Billy] He had a huge crate of toys and loved to play. [the scene shows Santa, still as a baby, dancing to the music] And he was very funny. Always a barrel of laughs.

[Cut back to Billy and his dad]

Billy:
Santa's the coolest!

Billy's Dad:
He sure is, Billy. Now, you better go to sleep so Santa can do his job. [leaves]

Billy:
Goodnight, Dad. Merry Christmas.

[As Billy's dad closes the door, Billy, sees the Chicago flag above him in shock as his dad's words repeated in his head]

Billy's Dad:
[memory] He grew up right here in Chicago. [he sees the Chicago Cubs flags on the wall] He even played for the Cubs. [he also sees his toy robot and his rubber chicken] He loves Robot Chicken! [he sees the apple logo on his computer] The apple of his parents' eye. [he backs away and accidentally knocks his mug on the floor; deep voice] Barrel of laughs.

[Billy runs out of his room to check the Christmas tree in the living room, and sees that there are no presents under the tree yet. In relief, Billy went back to bed. Then Billy's dad peeked that his son went to bed, and start putting presents under the tree]

Narrator:
The greatest trick Billy's Dad ever played, convincing his son that Santa exists.
