At the end of the night, Uncle Ralph is back at his own house, having helped his brother throw away the rest of the batteries and pick out new toys for the kids. In front of him sits a boxy television playing “It’s A Wonderful Life.”

A twelve-pack sits next to him, depleting by one can for every half-hour. In his hand is an old remote, and in the old remote are Double and Amp.

Double runs several tongues along the length of Amp’s body and pumps his body back and forth as the ends slide in and out of each other. This thought occurs to him: “You know, maybe Discharge will have a blast when he gets to the landfill. I’ll bet there are many batteries there if so many humans throw them out.”

Amp sucks on the tongues and rubs Double’s back.

“Let him have them, as long as I can have you. Merry Christmas.”

“Merry Christmas.”
