"The Moppet Family - Same Family, New Thread..."

[Beauregard]

Father: *stares at the fire put out with iced-tea* I suppose it has to be used for something since it isn't fit for human consuption...*blinks*

 

[The Count]

And as he said those fateful words... Father Moppet was dowsed with a shower of icy cold tea himself, trickling into his throat and down his gullet as he chokingly gulped it down, beseeching his lungs to take in the drafts of air from under the tea torrent.

 

[Beauregard]

Father: *drowing in tea* *thinks: I'm gunna need a strong cup of tea after this...wait...No! drat...* *splutter*

 

[The Count]

Voiceover: Cup of tea you say? Why settle for a mere cuplet when you can have.
*Button is pressed and Bo gets drenched anew...
A refreshing and mouthfilling icy tea shower!

 

[Beauregard]

Father: *suffocates on tea and begins to hallucinate*

Mrs Moppet Senior: *floating across his bearly open tea-stained eyes* Son! Before the Santa falls down the chimney, you will be visited by three ghosts who will teach you the error of your ways...

Father: *spluttering with tea* Gosts? Or goats?"

Mrs Moppet Senior: Ghosts!

Father: Ok...*colapses*

*At the Coles' home, the mailman arrives, dressed in his standard letter carrier's uniform... A few patches of holly are clipped to the buttonholes of
his shirt, his tie is festively grnished with holly berries, and there's even a fringe of white fur around the brim of his cap.

Mailman Johnson, in a New England accent: Oh, hello thaar Izzy. The girls been behaving thamselves? Little Tabby, she's a taarnaado of aactivity, aalways
buzzing about. Mrs. Kat-a-line, she been haaving those headaches again? Well, a good dose of fish staack with some claam chowder will cure what ails
her.

Before I forget... Here are the Christmas caards from your neighbors... And that paarcel you were hexpecting for Mr. Cole. Hope you have a haappy holidays, and give my best to everybody.
The mailman leaves his brown-bagged bundles with the meowvelous matriarch before Izzy closes the door, giggling over the surprise she has planned.

Oh Adam is going to love this! Girls, are you finished making your birthday presents for daddy? Great! He's going to love those. *goes to find Adam in the study* Oh dear? It's a special day for you and the girls and I have gifts and would like to take you to lunch anywhere you'd like to go. Why don't you come down and join us?

 

[The Count]

*At Magic School... Well, that was certainly nice of Headmistress... Will have to send her a Christmas card and a delicious present as well. Hmmm, wonder if Izzy and the girls knew I'd be here today. Oh well, I'll see them when I get back home later this evening.

 

[Beauregard]

Father: *still hallucinating in iced-tea-induced delight* When the bell strikes...one...I'll be visted by...*idea* I could just...*takes batteries out of all the clocks in the house* HA!

*Back in Heartbreak Hotel Hospital*

Drue: Hoozah! I'm cured of the whole lumpifying thing!! That only took, what, a month?

PeaPea: Thank goodness we have private healthcare, is all I'm saying.
