The family dinner passes merrily with a lot of laughter and good- natured banter.

Aaron seems to enjoy the time with your family as much as you enjoy watching him make jokes and charmingly respond to your grandma's nagging remarks.
AARON
What a lovely dinner! Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton, thank you for having me
over.
MOTHER
You are welcome to join us anytime, Aaron.
MOTHER
Is the Christmas Eve tradition any different in Canada?

"Suggest going for a walk outside."

MCfff
Aaron, would you like to go for a walk outside?
AARON
That sounds like a great idea. The town looks charming when covered in snow.
AARON
But you'll need to put on some warmer clothes, it's freezing outside!
MOTHER
Oh, don't you just love this young man?
FATHER
Humph.

AARON
Aaron, would you care for a hot chocolate by the fireplace?
AARON
That sounds like a great idea. I love hot chocolate.
AARON
Besides, that fire will not keep going by itself.
MOTHER
What do you say, Paul, hasn't this young man taken his responsibility seriously?
FATHER
Humph.
