NARRATOR: It has been said that magic vanished from our world a long time ago, and that humanity can no longer fulfill its desires through the power of wishes. To those who have lost the wondrous vision of childhood eyes, submitted here is the story of a little boy and a magical Christmas wish that changed his life forever.

NARRATOR: John became instantly attached to Teddy. There was something about that bear that made him feel as if he finally had a friend with whom he could share his deepest secrets. RECORDED TOY VOICE: I love you!

Wow! (JOHN'S DAD CHUCKLES) I guess Santa paid attention to how good you were this year, huh? Aw! Merry Christmas, John.

(COUGHS) Jesus, this is weak. It's not even getting me high. I got to have a talk with my weed guy. It's working for me. I think it sucks. I'm going to have a talk with him. I don't know that you want to go to a drug dealer with complaints. No. I know this guy a long time. I've known him since 9/11. You remember? I was, like, "Oh, shit, 9/11. I got to get high."

I'm sorry, Mr. Bennett, I didn't mean to scare anybody. I just wanted John and I to be friends. Yeah, Dad, I made a wish last night that Teddy was alive and my wish came true.

John, all you got to do is not fuck up and you get my job when I go to corporate next month. You're the new branch manager. All you've got to do is not fuck up. I realize that. Good.

John! May I speak with you, please? Shit. It's all right, go, go, go. I'll pull out of here. Hi, Thomas, how are you?
