Alright, the lads won't get off my back unless I do this, so...

Merry Christmas. [My God, these are likely to be the most begrudging-sounding Christmas wishes you've ever heard.

Also, there's a pause during which you may hear some younger voices - until Scrooge chimes in again.] ... What? NO, of course nobody's getting anything-- Five cents?! If I gave even just one cent to everyone in that doggone community, I'd be on my way to the poorhouse!


[Text addition, a couple of hours later]

To that one Japanese girl... Naoto, was it? Sorry I couldn't show up at your party. I had some last-minute business to take care of.

Oh, it's quite all right, Mr. McDuck. I do hope you had a very Merry Christmas, though!

... I won't lie, I did.

I'm glad to here it. The party was mostly a way for people to spend time with their friends, but I'm sure you would have preferred to be with your family, anyway.
