    • Quotes

      Sloan: I saw what's in the bag, Kay K. It's there, it's real.

      Kay K: We already went through this - Santa Claus burying something.

      Sloan: Obviously it was someone DRESSED as Santa.

      Kay K: Who?

      Sloan: I don't know! It could be anyone. But I remember another piece of it! It came to me in a dream.

      Kay K: A dream? No. No, no. You do NOT pull me out of tactical tagging to tell me about a dream. Six! Five! Four!

      Sloan: What are you doing? Why are you counting?

      Kay K: I only give people six seconds to tell me about dreams. Three! Two!

      Sloan: Forget about the dream. The important part is the money! What if it's still there? Just waiting for us to dig it up?

      Kay K: Wait, wait. Back up. What money?

      Sloan: That's what I'm trying to tell you. There's cash in that bag! Like, a real life buried treasure!

    5 stars for the puppets
    30 minutes in and the lead actress wore me out, and irritated me with her continual whining and grrrrrrrring ! not her fault granted, but the scriptwriters who wrote this confusing story.

    Im in the uk, so am confused about the location. The characters appear to have deep southern accents, they are knee deep in snow, and we get shots of a coastline.

    Not the greatest Christmas film, but at least there are sub-titles !!
