The stranger resembles a character associated with outer space, often referred to as a "man in black." His briefcase is full of documents and contracts.

During the stranger's persuasive presentation, Santa has mixed feelings about giving up the old tradition of Christmas!

Before Santa can make a decision, he must talk to his wife, Valada, and consult with his elf helpers to get their opinion on this matter. In a meeting with all assembled, Santa employs his power of argumentation before a vote is taken. He finds they share his strong convictions and foresight, making this a tough sell for the determined stranger. This item is printed on demand.

While in a dream state, Lester is programmed by the Sky People of the Stargazer Fleet to travel back in time! Captain Benedict Arnold is in charge of this exploratory mission to observe the Neanderthal and the Cro-Magnon tribal members in action, because the two tribes are coexisting during an ice age (also known as a glacial period) in an area close to each other. These conditions offer a good opportunity to study differing cultures. Genetic samples are to be taken from members of each tribe, to distinguish if there is a genetic link between the two species.
