https://youtu.be/CiTks39BPds

Mario: Oh yes, these two are gonna be surprised!!!

*KNOCK KNOCK*

Meggy: Mario, can you get that? I'm in the bathroom.

Mario: *gasp* I gotta hide these cards.

Mario hid the cards and he answered the door.

Mario: Alright?

Luigi: Guess who came to town for Christmas?

Mario: Hello, Dad!

Pio: Hello, son!

Mario and Pio hugged.

Mario: Cup of Tea?

Pio: Yes, please.

Inside...

Meggy: Hey, everyone.

Mario: Nice potty break?

Meggy: It was alright.

Pio: Ah yes, it really is wonderful to be back in your delightful home.

Meggy: Oh, thanks Pio.

Luigi: It's just great to have him back, after that little... mis-understanding incident...

Mario: Hmm...

...

Meggy: Um... I heard you're moving into town.

Pio: Yep, I've decided to spend my last few years in the UK. I'm not moving to any Retirement Home in Italy, I'm like Carl Fedricksen from 'Up'.

Mario: I'm surprised you know what that is.

Luigi: You know, I really am gonna miss that house.

Pio: Me too.

Mario: So, what's gonna happen now?

Luigi: Well, Me and Dad are gonna get an Estate agent and we're gonna look at some houses around town.

Mario: Or outside town.

Luigi: Then... when that's sorted, our Dad will be officially living in this country.

Mario: I wonder why...

Mario and Meggy winked at each other.

Luigi: Um... what are you two doing?

Mario: Oh, nothing.

Pio: Being weird again?

Mario: Yes, we are.

...

Meggy: Ooo...

Luigi: You okay?

Meggy: Oh, I'm alright. It's just a stomach cramp.

Mario: Well, shall we head to the castle?

Pio: Alright, then. How far is the castle again?

Mario: It's actually a 5 minute walk from here.

Pio: Okie-dokie.

5 MINUTES OF WALKING LATER...

SMG4: Merry Christmas, everybody!!!

Everyone: *cheering*

Meggy: I see, you two are in the Christmas spirit.

Tari: We are!!! We're getting married in less than 2 weeks!!!

Pio: Oh, congrats on your engagement!

Mario: Oh you two, this is my Dad, by the way.

SMG4: Oh, you must be Mario and Luigi's father. I'm SMG4 and this is my future wife, Tari.

Pio: Well, hello there SMG4 and Tari. I'm Pio.

SMG4: What kind of name is that?

Luigi: It's an Italian name.

Tari: Nice to meet you, Pio.

They shook hands.

Pio: So you two, this is your new friends and family?

Mario: Yep, we've been best buddies for 10 years now.

Luigi: SMG4 is like a new brother to me.

SMG4: Aww, thanks bro!

*BRO-FIST*

Tari: Hey Meggy, is it just me or are you gaining weight?

...

Meggy: I beg your pardon?

Tari: I'm just saying.

Meggy: Um... are we all going to the German Market?

Pio: Oh, we only just got here but that sounds good.

Tari: Good idea, we'll meet you there!

SMG4: Wait for me!!!

SMG4 and Tari left.

Mario: Christ, they're in a hurry.

Luigi: Alright, then. Let's go to the German Market.

Then...

Saiko: Yo, Meggy!

Meggy: Alright, Saiko?

Saiko: Melony wants you.

Meggy: Okay?

Saiko: And she's crying...

Pio: Who's Melony?

Mario: A Human Watermelon.

Meggy: Melony?

Melony: *sniff* Meggy...

Meggy: Oh... it's...

Melony: *sobbing*

Meggy: Aww, Melony...

Melony: I miss him...

Meggy: I know...

Melony: It's Christmas and I'm all alone...

Meggy: Don't be silly, you still got your best friends.

Melony: True, actually...

Meggy: Listen, Christmas is a time of Joy, not to get upset...

Melony: I know...

...

Meggy: Hey, do you remember that one time we went to the park and we were feeding the ducks?

Melony: Actually, I do.

Meggy: This one duck came up from behind and bit Axol's foot and he fell into the lake.

Melony: Yes, it did... It did not like Axol... and it when he got out of the lake, the duck crapped all over his foot.

Meggy: I know...

Melony: *sniff*

...

Meggy/Melony: *LAUGHING*

Mario: What are you two laughing at?

Meggy: Ducks.

Mario: Fair enough. Oh, that reminds me of that time when a duck crapped on Axol's foot.

...

Mario/Meggy/Melony: *LAUGHING*

...

Melony: Um... Meggy?

Meggy: Yes, Melony?

Melony: Are you gaining weight.

Meggy: ...
