Death:
[reads a list]
The boy wants a pair of trousers that he doesn't have to share, a huge meat pie, a sugar mouse, "a lot of toys" and a puppy named Scruff.
Albert:
Ah, how sweet. I shall wipe away a tear, 'cause what he's getting, see, is this wooden toy and an apple.
Death:
But the letter clearly...
Albert:
I know. It's the socio-economic factors. The world would be in a hell of a mess, eh, if everyone got what they asked for.
Death:
I gave them what they wanted in the store...
Albert:
Yeah, well, what good is a god that gives you everything you want?
Death:
You have me there.
Albert:
It's the HOPE that's important. It's a big part of belief. I mean to say, you give people jam today and they'll just sit and eat it. But jam tomorrow, now... that'll keep them going for ever.
Death:
And you mean that because of this the poor get poor things and the rich get rich things?
Albert:
Well, yes. That's the meaning of Hogswatch, isn't it, Master?
Death:
But I'm the Hogfather! At the moment, I mean.
