Meanwhile the Queen and Prince enter Santa's home. The Queen says:

"I would get a divorce, but I just can't think of breaking dear old Santa's heart. He is such a darling."

Santa, who has returned for more toys, enters the door at this point, looking playfully severe; there is a twinkle in his eye.

The Prince falls on his knees:

"Ah, forgive me for being here," he says, "I have done the little Queen no harm."

Thomas Page enters, blowing a horn. He announces: "The Supreme Court has ordered me to pronounce the Queen's marriage null and void, because any marriage is illegal which takes place between a human being and a fairy. In the Court's judgment, Santa Claus is human."

Billy Bundy steps forward and the Prince says to the Queen: "Here is the minister ready to marry us."

The Queen says she feels she ought to transform Santa into a fairy and marry him over again. The Prince is disconsolate.

Santa says: "Cheer up, Prince. I don't want to be transformed into a fairy. I would rather be human. I am going to give you to each other as my Christmas gift to you."

The Fairy Queen and the Prince rejoice.

Santa then brings in the old lady, who is immediately clasped in the arms of the Prince. He says:

The old lady murmurs: "My long lost son!"

Santa Claus announces: "The Prince's mother is going to be Mrs. Santa Claus."

Billy Bundy approaches, and the two couples place themselves before him, one on each side, while he says: "I pronounce you husband and wife."

Curtain opens, revealing a handsome Christmas tree, with an enormous stocking marked, "For Santa Claus," and from it a book on which Santa reads: "How Young Husbands Can Make Their Wives Happy."

Santa is jubilant over his stocking and the book. He examines the other gifts and distributes them.

Billy Bundy says: "We should not keep Santa here to distribute our gifts. Half the little children in the world are waiting for him."

The reindeer drive up to the door. Santa and Mrs. Santa drive off, Mrs. Santa calling back: "We will bring some of the little children back with us."

All dance around the Christmas tree singing: "The Christmas Tree." Santa and Mrs. Santa return, with a troop of little folks from the audience, to whom they distribute gifts. They are jovial and cordial in their greetings, while the Fairy Queen and the Prince are gracious and delightful. All the little fairies help, distributing the gifts among the audience, crying: "Merry Christmas!"
