Plot: The Red Ryder BB gun is all nine-year-old Ralphie Parker wants for Christmas, which is quickly approaching. His mother's initial thought was that he would shoot his eyes out when he brought it up at the supper table. Ralphie sets out on a mission to persuade everyone, including his father, teachers, and even Santa, to see things his way to receive the greatest gift of the season. A beautiful present from his aunt, which his mother adores, is among the many gifts he receives on the big day. Consider BB guns, though.

Kevin's home was targeted by two robbers. Kevin had his own aesthetically pleasing "playground organ" at home, so the two naive robbers played a "game" while laughing as they crept into his home. Is Kevin able to win this "game" in the end?
