Sarah is back at the radio station and taking Frank and his holly jolly light up tie to task for failing to fire a team of radio hosts three days before Christmas. Can't he follow simple heartless and cruel orders without questioning everything? Frank, feeling perturbed that Sarah made him turn off his tie, tells her that if she wants to fire Louise and Abner she'll have to do it herself. Sarah growls at him, but since she already said his job was safe, she doesn't threaten to fire him but instead walks to the radio booth to fire Louise and Abner right now on air live. That'll jack up the ratings for sure! Sarah is yelling at Frank for his failure to manage effectively when she stops outside the booth and stares at the hosts: It's an old lady and her dummy. Yes, a dummy on the radio. Frank explains they are from Vaudeville and somebody somewhere gives a shit about that and/or knows what it is/was. Well, scratch that, because Sarah is firing them. Yes, even though it is Christmas. Yes, even though she is elderly and will be eating cat food in no time. Yes, even though that dummy is mad creepy and is totally going to come and murder Sarah in her sleep. Sarah "No Fear" Walker strolls in and ruins the old lady's life, Christmas, and retirement plan.
Justin has walked straight into a bad trip. Alternatively, Santa drank too much eggnog and yarfed Christmas cheer all over Kevin's 300 square foot living room. There are two trees fully decorated with lights, balls (heh), tinsel, and tulle. There are two or three life-sized outdoor lawn reindeer decorations plus candy cane home accents, tinsel garlands around every picture, poinsettias, fake snow, sparkly trees, stockings, every wall is hung with sparkles and spangles and santa-themed wall hangings. You know Semi-Homemade Sandra Lee's drunken tablescapes? It's like one of those was actually an IED and exploded all over that apartment. Justin doesn't quite know what to say. He takes one look at Santaland and starts begging Kevin to dial it down a little. He wants to impress the nurse that he REALLY likes (not enough to call her back within a month, obvs) and the only way to do that is to have Christmas EXACTLY like the one at their mom's. Kevin has an idea. He leaves Justin to be eternally traumatized by the Ho-Ho-Ho-ing of the animatronic Santa. THAT will require some therapy.
