Upon arriving in New York City, Buddy fails to comprehend several aspects of the human world, crossing the street at the wrong time, chewing discarded gum from a subway banister (despite Santa's warning), accepting fliers being handed out, and taking a coffee shop's claim to have the "world's best cup of coffee" literally and running inside to congratulate them. This is a huge shock, and devastating to Buddy. Prior to leaving, Santa informs him that his father, Walter, is on the naughty list due to his greed and selfishness. Buddy is convinced by Leon the Snowman ( Leon Redbone) to go to New York to find his father. He explains how Susan later died and that Walter now works at a children's book company in New York City. Papa Elf reveals that Buddy was born to Walter Hobbs ( James Caan) and Susan Wells and given up for adoption and that Walter never knew of his existence. While working, he overhears a conversation in which one of the elves mentions that Buddy is, in fact, a human.
