The Announcement

It's the day of Santa naming his Successor, which is treated as if it's as important as the naming of a new Pope. Candy has heard from Snowie that Santa is going to choose her, but is he really? I won't tell.

In an effort to drive home to the viewer how much Candy has changed, everyone in her life - her family and closest friends - rake her over the coals for being "selfish". The accusation is ironic inasmuch as Candy's family are leaches who heretofore have only used her for their own benefit, while her friends similarly use her to pump up their own constantly self-absorbed, self-centred egos. If a woman choosing for a time to put her own ambition and goals - herself - momentarily ahead of those who financially and emotionally sponge off her is selfish, then so be it. Candy, you go girl! Put your own damn self first for a change.
