Back in the Homeworld, he resumed trying to put together flamboyant Christmas festivities, and roped [[Foreman-964]] into flying with him to the [[Prime Universe]] aboard [[Dandy-432's Fog Ship]] in order to bring back an Earth [[Christmas]] tree. They found a tree plantation connected to a farm, which Dandy guilessly interpreted as a “Christmas tree forest”; it was only after getting Foreman to cut a tree (of suitable size to fit in [[Dandy-432's house]]), and dragging it halfway to the Ship, that the Cupids bumped into [[Farmer (Dandy and the Christmas Tree)|the owner of the premises]] and realised they were, in fact, committing theft. This did not deter them, however, and they made off with the tree faster than the farmer could follow.

Late in the afternoon of December 24th, he swung by [[Philatel-426]]'s office to invite him to the Christmas party he was putting together, but was initially rebuffed. In the night, Philatel was visited by [[the Three Spirits]] and given a [[A Christmas Carol|''Christmas Carol''-style experience]], with Dandy in the role of Scrooge's nephew Fred; consequently, the [[Ghost of Christmas Present (A Copper-Colored Christmas Carol)|Ghost of Christmas Present]] gave him a vision of the party going on without him. There, he witnessed Dandy recounting his failed attempt to invite Philatel to the other [[Blue Feather]] operatives, then playing a guessing-game in which “Dandy thought of something and the others had to figure it out, through only yes-or-no questions” — with the answer to “a rather temperamental machine. A most disagreeable sort of machine, which one might not want to have in their home” being Philatel himself. After waking up, however, Philatel found the dinner party only just beginning, and joined it after all, being warmly welcomed by a startled Dandy.
