Mendes and Gosling play a homely husband and wife who re-enact the traditional story of Santa Claus based on Clement Clarke Moore’s classic poem, “Twas the Night Before Christmas.”
McLeod makes a drunken attempt to recite the poem as Mendes and Gosling mouth his fuddled narration.
"…Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse." McLeod relentlessly fumbles on his lines, repeating, "I'm sorry guys. Guys, I'm sorry." Mendes, Gosling and Carey appear unfazed by McLeod’s fumbling, and go along with his drunken rambling.
"On Dancer, on Prancer, on Shouter and Blintzen. On... uh... maybe, I, they may have, I may have already named all the guys." McLeod stumbles again.
Carey, in St. Nicholas garb, rides in on a sleigh and places gifts beneath the happy couple’s tree.
As of Friday morning, the video has received over 80,000 views on YouTube since its debut on Wednesday.
Although both Gosling and Mendes have been spotted out on dates for the past several months, neither actor has publicly acknowledged the relationship.
