Daddy Claus — Robin Lee Hatcher

THE CHRISTMAS CHARADE

Joe: You could tell your grandfather the truth.

Alicia: I can't. I only lied because he was so sick. He's from the old school -- marriage is for a lifetime. If he finds out the truth, he'll worry and fuss and stew.

Joe: What you need is rent-a-husband.

Alicia: You applying for the position?

Joe: Six weeks pretending to be your husband? Tough work, but someone has to do it.

Alicia: It's only while Grandpa is here for the holidays....

Joe: You aren't serious?

Alicia: It was your idea!

Hero: Joe Palermo
Heroine: Alicia Harris
