Devon, the Supper Sleuths formally thank you for gracing us with your notable presence. First of all, the upcoming competition at the Santa’s Apprentice program in London’s glamorous Knightsbridge will be covered by every periodical around the globe. Make sure you run the show with your best elf manners because you’re representing Santa’s good name all over. Better yet, make the others there do all of the work! You’re tired of managing it all, anyway!

By the way, below is your invitation, in case you need a reminder. You’re not exactly used to running your schedule by the clock so it’s important you don’t sleep through. Set two alarms, you’ve been known to get left home alone!

Full Name: “Devon Mack Allister”

Favorite Animal: “Turtledoves”

Favorite Vacation Destination: “I’ll take New York City over Florida, any day!”

Favorite Color: “I love all Christmas colors and Visa comes in every color. Cha-ching!”

Favorite Food: “Anything room service or nowadays, Doordash with my sister’s credit card.”

Favorite Song: “Cool Jerk” is just great for singing in the shower.”

Devon, you are a small-town hero with Peter-Pan syndrome. You’re unemployed, single, and honestly prefer it this way. You love having the freedom to sit up late at night watching rubbish and eating junk food like ice cream sundaes, pizza, and microwavable macaroni and cheese (which you order online using your parents’ Amazon account.) You like to be at home alone where it’s safe and are obsessed with home defense with alarms and cameras in every room. You don’t have many friends these days as not many people can handle your wisecracks and practical jokes which have been known to go a little too far. But there is one thing you are quite proud of, and that is the Christmas you saved an orphan reindeer who was lost, injured, and who you affectionately named Dancer. That story got you 15 minutes of fame on national news 20 years ago, but you’d think it was last week with how often you bring it up! You’re banking on it putting you at the top of the running for Santa’s apprentice tonight, because your unemployment checks are about to run out!

Wear a tacky Christmas T-shirt, sweatpants, a bathrobe, and sandals with socks. Be sure to bring a fake newspaper that you say contains your famous story. Roll it up and shake it from time to time throughout the game, reminding everyone of what you did! (Of course, if they actually want to see the story, don’t open the paper!) Also, bring a few gags for when there’s a lull; nothing dangerous, but things like a whoopie cushion, fake puke, or some slime that looks like snot, etc, so people get a little grossed out by your humor. Feel free to bring a tip jar in case anyone finds your pranks funny.
