Watch the following video:
Stuck at work due to a blizzard, Simon starts talking to the new marketing assistant Leia, who turns out to be his childhood friend.
Leia: Dave the Snowman!
Dave: Dear God, it’s Leia the Sleigh-girl, herself! It’s been ages! It’s great to see you.
Leia: Indeed. I recognized you by the scar.
Dave: Do you remember how I got it? A bunch of you made a snowman out of me and I fell on a broken piece of ice after you pushed me with your sleigh.
The weather outside right now sure reminds me of the snow that day.
Leia: Haha! Sorry I shouldn’t laugh, but how could I forget? But it wasn’t my fault the hill was slippery!
We had to cover your face with all of our scarves to stop the bleeding…Oh my, I’m sorry!
Dave: …and you gave me your mittens because mine tore. It was freezing cold outside that day.
If it wasn’t for that, it would have been a great day. We were all having a blast. Remember we had a huge snowball fight. And we made a giant snow fort.
I remember it like it was yesterday.
Leia: Wow, what a blast from the past!
The entrance is all snowed in, but that will give us time to catch up.
Dave: I’d rather be inside than freezing outside, anyways. Can I interest you in a cup of hot chocolate to keep you warm?
