Christmas is that special time of year when guests pop up unexpectedly. Like David Bowie coming to the door of Bing Crosby's newly rented English country home to duet on "Little Drummer Boy." Or, in this instance, a couple of gold-plated angels. Who are also robots. And also? Inhuman killing machines, as so often is the case with gold-plated robotic angels.
Fortunately, the current (and soon to be former--sadface) Doctor Who, David Tennant, is also on the scene, wielding his trusty Sonic Screwdriver (and no, that is not, as far as I know, a euphamism) to protect Rudolph and Clarise.
Then again, how much protection do they need, considering that Rudolph's nose fires death rays? (Why do you think it glows?)
Still, you can't be too safe, especially when characters like the Joker are showing up? When Clarise asked him what he wanted for Christmas, he replied, "Well, y'know, I've always thought venison was a lovely stocking stuffer..."
Things got ugly after that.

Macabre Christmas goings-on.
Those angels' golden faces would never fool me; they look eeeevil. They also bear a striking resemblance to paintings and sculptures I've seen of Emperor Caligula. Again, eeeevil.
The Joker standing between R & C? Deliciously wrong, bro.
Then I probably shouldn't tell you about the Nightmare Before Christmas figures sitting between R & C today, should I?

You know, Ed, I remember when you were an innocent, sweet-natured young man. (JB sniffs and wipes away tears of nostalgia)
