D.A. Said He's Santa edit

This mention in the summary does not include when District Attorney Thomas Mara said that. It appears in a scene usually cut from broadcasts to allow more time for commercials. It was shot in the Central Park zoo. Mara's son, Tommy, can't get the reindeers' attention, but Kris walks by, snaps his finger and they come running (thanks to an unseen zoo employee's broom handle). Tommy exclaims getting the reindeer to come to him proves Kris is Santa, to which his father rather tiredly agrees. I played Tommy is how I know this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:7000:6A00:32DA:F856:CF5E:FBDE:81E0 (talk) 00:06, 21 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
