Plot[]
As Pohatu puts his gifts for everyone under a Christmas, Onua approaches him and asks him if he got Tahu a good gift this year. Pohatu explains that he hopes so and that Tahu got indigent over his gift last year despite not getting him anything. Onua admits Tahu can be selfish, then proceeds to give Pohatu a new pair of kickers, saying that they're tan this time. Pohatu holds all the previous kickers Onua has gotten him in the past and accepts the new pair, saying that Onua's gifts are always original.
From a distance Kopaka tells the two Toa to keep it down, as he's trying to meditate. When Pohatu asks why he chose to meditate there, Kopaka explains that since Nuju kicked him out of Ko-Koro to enjoy the wildlife, and since he does like Christmas, he decided to sit under the tree. Pohatu, shocked, asks if Kopaka knows that Christmas is all about spending time with friends. Kopaka disagrees, saying he's never heard of that. In which Onua asks if Kopaka's read any Christmas card, though Kopaka states he hasn't read any of them, deeming them as "corny." Before he leaves, Pohatu and Onua explain that the true meaning of Christmas is Kolhii. Kopaka then leaves in dismay as the two continuously chant "Kolhii!"
