Just turn around and close your eyes. Maybe put your fingers in your ears and, uh, sing "Jingle Bells" as loud as you can. ♪ Jingle bells, jingle bells ♪ ♪ Jingle all the way ♪ ♪ Oh, how fun it is to ride... ♪ You were about to murder an innocent child. ♪ Jingle bells, jingle bells... ♪ Innocent? It's naughty. Naughty. Naughty! It's part of the Lightstone legacy. We're horrible people. So I get why you did what you did. When your grandfather told me I'd never run the company because a girl doesn't have what it takes, I had to snatch the reins away from him. But the point is, a Lightstone takes what's theirs. I'm proud of you, son. All right, where the hell is it?

You got to kill Aunt Linda first. What the hell, Bert? You want to squeeze in being a little shit before you die, Bertrude? - I say shoot him first. - What? Wait. No, no, no. Don't shoot him. Don't shoot him first. And don't you call him a little shit, you gold-digging bitch. Okay. I changed my mind. -Shoot the alcoholic bitch first. -Don't call my mom - an alcoholic bitch. - Your mom's an alcoholic. - I'm sorry. - You're a gold-digging bitch. Oh, I'm a gold-digger, when I have a whole-ass career? You're not even part of the fucking family. - She's an engineer. - You know goddamn well... Shut up!
