Happy Creepy Christmas from Swiss Chalet (Canada)

This destined to be classic from the Canadian chain is from 2009, I think.

I remember living in Montreal when I first saw it. I was sitting next to a civilian* when I turned to them and asked "Is this a completely creepy disturbing ad or what?

I soon shared the creepiness with other friends. From then on, every time the commercial aired, we made up stories about the daughter and father. Exactly why is she so taken aback when he arrives? Why does she feign ignorance at being taken to her "favorite place?" And why does she act with such a degree of stoic sadness when he ahem-- imitates rudolph.

Feel free to take a break from your egg nog and make up your own stories.
