Small BOY shopping with his MOTHER. Aged around 4. Both are watching the animatronic Christmas display in the local shopping centre. The MOTHER looks bored and tired. The BOY is enjoying the show like no one has ever enjoyed anything in the history of the world ever.
Frenzy of jumping, whooping, attempts at dancing and singing along. Cries of 'Watch me Mum, watch me!' more dancing, more jumping, more singing. BOY tried to make MOTHER dance, fails. Dances more on his own. This continues for the entire 15 minute show.
The singing robots finish and MOTHER sits the boy on a bench to put his coat back on so they can go outside.
BOY: Wow. that was good Mum. I liked it.
MOTHER: I saw. You did some nice dancing.
BOY: Yeah. I was excited.
MOTHER struggles with the coat. The BOY gets quieter and quieter.
BOY: Mum. I think I was too excited.
BOY yawns and falls asleep. MOTHER picks him up and straps him into his stroller. They leave.
