[George looks very sorry to have to admit this, but:]

I thought that was a rather lovely trip, but I still don't understand what Kwanzaa is.

People do that to Christmas?

There is a reason that it is so widely resented anymore. Especially by those aboard that have no reason to celebrate it, yet are forced to by the conditions of the ship. Just as they're forced to be here. They've no reason to see the optimism that should come hand in hand with the holiday.

That's awful. Surely there's something we can do?

It never hurts to request people to celebrate the holidays with you. On a more personal level.

That's certainly simple enough. I might have done anyway.

Splendid! You're already doing well by the holidays then.

It is the most wonderful time of the year.
