C'mon, Mikado! You can't get so serious in a place like this! They'll kick us out for scaring away all their innocent little shopper elves!

I've got a better idea!

[His free arm pumps into the air.]

Reunion party at my place! Or better yet, we can sneak into one of the unused rooms! Yeah, that's perfect! That way we can party all night, and no grouchy old neighbors will bang on the wall with their canes because we interrupted their period drama!
