Christmas morning presents are opened and champagne is drunk at John’s house. Bob hung his stocking there, and taking pity upon its lack of presents, John had the little kids stuff it. The contents of Bob’s stocking: single serving box of corn flakes, used glow sticks, happy face stickers and Buns of Steel VHS (“that’s the closest thing to porn in this house”-John)
