[The sane-sounding guy from earlier!] Yeah, I got one... who's Santa Claus, though? Is that someone here?

...I think it's probably more likely that someone's delivering presents anonymously. Given what I've seen here, though, I wouldn't rule out this "Santa" guy either.

[miamijustice]

[keusrai]

[Wait a sec. Horatio Caine and Horatio Alger... it all makes sense now!] Oh, okay! I guess that's a pretty good gift after all. I just got some chocolates.
