As Willie is getting a pink stuffed elephant for the kid he turns around and finds out that marcus betrays him. Just when Marcus is about to shoot Willie the police pop out of hiding and begin chasing the two burglars. Willie escapes and makes it back to the house with the elephant and the police chasing him but gets shot by the police 8 times as he attempts to make it to the doorstep of the house. Months later, Willie writes the kid a letter letting him know that he is okay, Marcus is in jail, the police are in trouble for shooting Willie when he was unarmed, and that "Mrs Santa's sister" has got temporary custody over the kid until the kids' dad gets out of prison.

Willy: Were you dropped on your head?
Kid: My head?
Willy: Of course your head. Who else's head are we talking about?
Kid: How can I be dropped on my own head?
Trivia: Small children have told Billy Bob Thornton they like the film - he was reportedly "stunned" that parents would allow their kids to watch it.
Question: Here's something I've never understood. Who is that guy that attacks Willie in the parking lot near the start of the film? The guy that says "I am not gay". What the hell is he talking about? Then calls him "assclown". Who was that guy and why did he attack Willie for no apparent reason?
Answer: Willie asks the guy if he's off his meds, to which the man replied, "Yes."
Answer: My guess is that when he was a child, he was molested by a man dressed as Santa Claus, and ever since then he has been holding a grudge against people dressed as Santa Claus. You can see him staring angrily at Willie in the bar even before Willie notices him.
