ANNOUNCER: We now return
to The Today Show
11
00:00:36,620 --> 00:00:38,704
with Matt Lauer sadly
looking in the window.
12
00:00:38,897 --> 00:00:40,855
First up,
Rachael Ray will be here
13
00:00:40,916 --> 00:00:43,358
to help us with a simple
Christmas recipe.
14
00:00:43,377 --> 00:00:44,859
(muffled):
Can I come back now?
15
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:46,620
Then, Al will be in
to get you ready
16
00:00:46,756 --> 00:00:48,213
with your Christmas
travel weather.
17
00:00:48,406 --> 00:00:50,123
Are you guys still sore
at me?
18
00:00:50,276 --> 00:00:53,052
We also share your best tweets
about family visitors.
19
00:00:53,245 --> 00:00:55,779
I thought about what I did.
20
00:00:55,839 --> 00:00:58,373
(loud thud)
21
00:00:58,434 --> 00:01:00,392
(groans)
22
00:01:00,585 --> 00:01:03,062
(bleep) (grunts)
23
00:01:03,255 --> 00:01:06,973
(bleep) (grunts) (bleep)
24
00:01:07,068 --> 00:01:10,152
(Lois grunts, pants)
25
00:01:13,074 --> 00:01:14,798
(groans, pants)
26
00:01:14,817 --> 00:01:16,483
That looks heavy.
27
00:01:16,577 --> 00:01:19,394
Well, dragging a bin full
of decorations down the stairs
28
00:01:19,455 --> 00:01:21,154
while repeatedly yelling (bleep)
29
00:01:21,248 --> 00:01:23,824
in front of my children
means only one thing.
30
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,643
It's Christmas time.
31
00:01:26,662 --> 00:01:28,478
Yeah, Lois, I knew
it was Christmas a week ago
32
00:01:28,539 --> 00:01:31,665
when the "O" in the PornHub
logo became a wreath.
33
00:01:31,759 --> 00:01:33,317
-Same.
-Nice.
34
00:01:33,377 --> 00:01:34,985
Listen, there's a lot of work
to be done
35
00:01:35,003 --> 00:01:37,654
to make this place look festive,
and unlike most years,
36
00:01:37,756 --> 00:01:40,340
where I do everything,
this year I want you all
37
00:01:40,434 --> 00:01:42,083
to help
with the Christmas chores.
38
00:01:42,186 --> 00:01:43,844
Come on, Lois.
You know the deal around here.
39
00:01:43,996 --> 00:01:46,830
We split everything zero-100,
like most couples.
40
00:01:46,849 --> 00:01:48,423
And I also have another request.
41
00:01:48,484 --> 00:01:50,167
I'd like
to finally get a present
42
00:01:50,227 --> 00:01:52,093
from the heart this year.
43
00:01:52,154 --> 00:01:53,946
Not just
some defective clothing item
44
00:01:54,139 --> 00:01:56,022
Peter got on clearance
at Marshalls.
45
00:01:56,117 --> 00:01:58,266
But you love The Roling Stons.
46
00:01:58,327 --> 00:01:59,952
Now, to make sure
you don't forget your chores,
47
00:02:00,121 --> 00:02:01,678
I've made you each a list.
48
00:02:01,738 --> 00:02:04,514
And I want all
of these completed by tomorrow.
49
00:02:04,533 --> 00:02:07,351
Sorry. I can't do chores.
My trick elbow is acting up.
50
00:02:07,369 --> 00:02:09,962
-Is that your card?
-No.
51
00:02:10,155 --> 00:02:12,673
Oh, boy,
it's worse than I thought.
52
00:02:18,472 --> 00:02:21,623
Why are we doing our Christmas
shopping at the strip mall?
53
00:02:21,725 --> 00:02:23,717
'Cause we ran out
of gas out front.
54
00:02:23,869 --> 00:02:25,869
You got
to get that gas gauge fixed.
55
00:02:25,929 --> 00:02:28,038
Look, Chris, did you want
the gas gauge fixed,
56
00:02:28,056 --> 00:02:29,464
or did you want a year
of Quibi?
57
00:02:29,525 --> 00:02:31,299
The gas gauge.
58
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,485
I'm sure we can find everything
on Mom's list here.
59
00:02:33,637 --> 00:02:35,303
It doesn't look so bad.
60
00:02:35,364 --> 00:02:39,491
If this place doesn't have Baby
Yoda toys, I swear to God...
61
00:02:39,660 --> 00:02:42,402
I'll probably buy something
with Spider-Man on it.
62
00:02:42,496 --> 00:02:44,979
Okay, guys, now before
you can shop at a strip mall,
63
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:46,981
you have
to use the free-standing ATM
64
00:02:47,042 --> 00:02:48,575
that's chained to a pole
65
00:02:48,727 --> 00:02:51,128
and not affiliated
with any known bank.
66
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,732
Good. It's taking
an extra-long time
67
00:02:55,792 --> 00:02:58,068
to read the card and probably
stealing the number.
68
00:02:58,128 --> 00:03:01,847
Select "yes"
to pay $15 fee. No brainer.
69
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,407
Perfect.
Now I can't read the screen,
70
00:03:03,467 --> 00:03:05,333
'cause the glare is so bad.
71
00:03:05,352 --> 00:03:06,910
And it's not giving me
my card back.
72
00:03:06,970 --> 00:03:08,929
-(phone ringing)
-Hello?
73
00:03:09,081 --> 00:03:10,355
Yes, this is Peter Griffin.
74
00:03:10,524 --> 00:03:12,708
Not anymore?
Well, thanks for telling me.
75
00:03:12,735 --> 00:03:15,360
Look, there's a card
and nice paper store.
76
00:03:15,553 --> 00:03:19,198
Let's go walk around it slowly
and let out tiny farts.
77
00:03:19,391 --> 00:03:21,849
-(door bells tinkle)
-(soft instrumental music plays)
78
00:03:21,952 --> 00:03:24,536
Hmm. Nice, thick card stock.
79
00:03:24,729 --> 00:03:25,946
(squeaky gas expulsion)
80
00:03:26,098 --> 00:03:27,855
Ah, yes,
that's a very bright white.
81
00:03:27,958 --> 00:03:29,857
(squeaky gas expulsion)
82
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,359
Ooh, Century Gothic font.
83
00:03:31,378 --> 00:03:32,694
(loud, rumbling,
gas expulsion)
84
00:03:32,755 --> 00:03:36,531
Miss, this store
is for tiny farts only.
85
00:03:36,592 --> 00:03:40,052
There's a Lids next door
for that sort of thing.
86
00:03:42,448 --> 00:03:44,781
Welcome to the strip mall
H&R Block.
87
00:03:44,841 --> 00:03:46,225
Yes, I'd like to do my taxes.
88
00:03:46,418 --> 00:03:49,119
-How much does H charge?
-$59.
89
00:03:49,221 --> 00:03:50,896
Hmm. How much does R charge?
90
00:03:51,089 --> 00:03:52,789
$59.
91
00:03:52,891 --> 00:03:56,718
Does R know H has a side thing
going with M? H&M?
92
00:03:56,779 --> 00:03:58,462
I don't know what
you're talking about.
93
00:03:58,522 --> 00:04:00,388
Is H back from lunch yet?
94
00:04:00,449 --> 00:04:02,908
Sorry. He said he was held up
with a client.
95
00:04:03,101 --> 00:04:06,319
You were with M again,
weren't you?!
96
00:04:06,472 --> 00:04:07,804
What? No, I wasn't.
97
00:04:07,823 --> 00:04:09,939
Then why are you wearing
a designer-looking shirt
98
00:04:09,959 --> 00:04:11,399
at a fraction of the cost?
99
00:04:11,460 --> 00:04:13,234
Maybe I wanted to get caught.
100
00:04:13,295 --> 00:04:16,088
I told you what I'd do
if I ever caught you cheating.
101
00:04:16,281 --> 00:04:18,298
This is on you!
102
00:04:19,584 --> 00:04:22,427
Why?! Why?!
103
00:04:22,579 --> 00:04:24,337
What's up?
I was just taking a pee.
104
00:04:24,490 --> 00:04:25,764
Someone call?
105
00:04:25,957 --> 00:04:29,393
Sometimes they let me write
my own skits.
106
00:04:32,022 --> 00:04:34,331
ANNOUNCER: We now return
to CBS This Morning
107
00:04:34,391 --> 00:04:37,517
with Charlie Rose sadly pressed
against the window.
108
00:04:37,611 --> 00:04:40,094
Coming up this morning,
Christmas came early
109
00:04:40,114 --> 00:04:43,340
for a group of first graders
in South Bend, Indiana.
110
00:04:43,358 --> 00:04:45,784
(muffled):
You guys still cross with me?
111
00:04:45,953 --> 00:04:49,179
Hey, how was the big day
of shop...
112
00:04:49,239 --> 00:04:51,957
(sighs) Wait. Where's all
the Christmas stuff?
113
00:04:52,150 --> 00:04:54,017
Ah, yeah. About that...
114
00:04:54,077 --> 00:04:55,519
I can't believe this.
115
00:04:55,537 --> 00:04:57,296
Brian, where's Stewie's
Elf on the Shelf?
116
00:04:57,489 --> 00:05:00,206
Meg, where's the twinkling
lights I asked for?
117
00:05:00,301 --> 00:05:01,633
Peter,
where's the Christmas tree?
118
00:05:01,785 --> 00:05:03,168
We don't even have a tree.
119
00:05:03,362 --> 00:05:04,878
I'm sorry, Lois.
I got it all under control.
120
00:05:04,972 --> 00:05:07,639
Don't you worry about a thing.
I'll be right back.
121
00:05:08,684 --> 00:05:11,810
♪ ♪
122
00:05:12,003 --> 00:05:14,220
(wind whistling)
123
00:05:14,356 --> 00:05:16,982
(gasps)
Peter, you did get a tree.
124
00:05:17,175 --> 00:05:18,892
Oh, it's beautiful.
125
00:05:18,986 --> 00:05:23,137
I sure did, Lois, because I love
you and I love this family.
126
00:05:23,198 --> 00:05:24,881
Oh, Peter.
127
00:05:24,941 --> 00:05:27,734
Peter. Peter.
128
00:05:27,828 --> 00:05:29,736
Peter. Peter?!
129
00:05:29,830 --> 00:05:32,556
Peter Griffin,
what the hell is going on here?
130
00:05:32,574 --> 00:05:34,558
Huh? Huh? What? Oh, yeah.
131
00:05:34,659 --> 00:05:36,818
I was gonna go get all
the Christmas stuff,
132
00:05:36,837 --> 00:05:38,562
but then I fell asleep
rubbin' one out
133
00:05:38,622 --> 00:05:41,064
to Madonna's
"Santa Baby" in the car.
134
00:05:41,083 --> 00:05:42,899
By the way, tonight's date night
is cancelled
135
00:05:42,959 --> 00:05:44,568
due to lack of interest.
136
00:05:44,586 --> 00:05:46,920
Peter, you were all supposed
to take the weight
137
00:05:47,056 --> 00:05:50,407
of the holidays off my shoulders
for once, and you failed.
138
00:05:50,425 --> 00:05:51,758
You all failed.
139
00:05:51,894 --> 00:05:54,001
Brian, you're supposed
to be responsible.
140
00:05:54,063 --> 00:05:56,096
Bad dog. Bad.
141
00:05:56,190 --> 00:05:57,764
(whimpering)
142
00:05:57,916 --> 00:06:01,526
Damn it. And who got candy cane
all over the couch?
143
00:06:01,719 --> 00:06:03,195
(whimpering)
144
00:06:03,346 --> 00:06:05,030
You know what?
I've had it.
145
00:06:05,181 --> 00:06:08,108
Every year, my cousin asks me
to come to Cabo for Christmas.
146
00:06:08,202 --> 00:06:09,776
Well, this year, I'm going.
147
00:06:09,928 --> 00:06:11,428
You're all gonna see
how hard it is
148
00:06:11,488 --> 00:06:13,521
to make Christmas happen
around here without me.
149
00:06:13,540 --> 00:06:16,708
I am packing my bags,
and I'm out of here.
150
00:06:16,901 --> 00:06:18,284
You're getting divorced?
151
00:06:18,379 --> 00:06:19,953
No, I'm just leaving
for a few days
152
00:06:20,089 --> 00:06:21,621
and ruining their Christmas.
153
00:06:21,715 --> 00:06:23,440
You're ruining Christmas
154
00:06:23,500 --> 00:06:26,051
by suing the city
over holiday decorations?
155
00:06:26,202 --> 00:06:28,703
No, I'm just leaving my family
for the holidays.
156
00:06:28,764 --> 00:06:30,964
You're doing deaf jokes?
157
00:06:31,058 --> 00:06:33,392
No. No one's doing deaf jokes.
158
00:06:33,585 --> 00:06:36,561
Well, I can't hear,
so I don't know.
159
00:06:36,754 --> 00:06:38,455
She's not doing them.
160
00:06:38,515 --> 00:06:40,290
-What?
-I don't know.
161
00:06:40,392 --> 00:06:42,626
I think we... I think...
162
00:06:42,644 --> 00:06:45,529
I think we are doing
deaf jokes at this point.
163
00:06:51,136 --> 00:06:53,820
I can't believe
Mom went to Cabo
164
00:06:53,956 --> 00:06:55,805
and left us alone
for Christmas.
165
00:06:55,824 --> 00:06:57,323
What are we gonna do?
166
00:06:57,476 --> 00:06:59,159
Well, I'll tell you
the first thing we're gonna do.
167
00:06:59,311 --> 00:07:02,087
We're gonna delete all of her
pretentious crap off the DVR.
168
00:07:02,256 --> 00:07:04,589
I want to be the one
to delete The Crown.
169
00:07:04,758 --> 00:07:07,909
She never watched them.
She just had 'em.
170
00:07:07,928 --> 00:07:09,152
Do it, son.
171
00:07:09,254 --> 00:07:11,321
Well, well, well, The Crown.
172
00:07:11,381 --> 00:07:12,839
How the tables have turned.
173
00:07:12,933 --> 00:07:14,415
Remember this face?
174
00:07:14,476 --> 00:07:16,417
The one that wanted
