Looks back and to his horror see's Mary and Fairy being chased by a sword weilding man. Takes a photo on his digital camera for the authorities and waits for Mary and the Fairy to run past before dispersing the whole bag of spare ball bearings for his Cessna over the floor behind them.
Keeps running towards the gate

Pilot, if you could just hang on a moment, I think the driver may be here any second with some of my luggage. There may be a bit of frankincense in there...and definitely a donkey. Just taxi slowly and they'll be here, I'm sure.

I hate to spoil the party atmosphere. But Henchman's going back to the stable. Where you left one of the babies.
Where Joseph is going to be pitching up. Expecting beer and pringles.
More importantly, did you pack the right kid?!?

Enters the stable to find a small child suckling off a cow in extreme agony. The child seems to be holding on using nothing but her teeth.
With her hands, the child is plucking wool out of the fleece of a nearby sheep.
What have we here then?
At the approach of the henchman, the child lets the animals go, and glares at the visitor.
Aren't you a pretty little girl then?
Ow! That's my finger!
The child clamps her teeth onto the Henchman with a vice-like grip.
