The whole “quick pretend we’re not home it might be beggars” is the most Irish Mam thing I can think of

The candle joke was the best! 😂😂😂
We have a tradition in German East Westphalia were Protestant children go singing with Lanterns on the birthday of Martin Luther (10th of November). He was the only historic person whose birthday I as a child therefore knew appart from Jesus' supposed one on the 25th of December 😂😂😂.
Catholic children go one day later on the day of St. Martin to sing. As a child you get a lantern and you go from door to door and sing to get candy as a reward. It is basically a very peaceful and cute thing. And for me it was one of the greatest feasts of the year: first came Christmas, then Easter, then my birthday, then Martin Luther and then Christmas again.
We children loved it! It made the shitty November with its bad weather a good month.
Because as a reward for singing, you would get candy and you were allowed to keep it and eat it whenever you wanted 😊. Unlike every other candy.
Long story, short end: While I was a child, our door was always open for children to sing.
But now that I am long grown up, my dad locks our garden gate with a huge lock so that no one can come to the front door to sing (woe be my dad now if he has to endure little singers 😂😂😂). I always feel bad seeing it. And I swore to myself, later when I live in my hometown again, children will be able to sing and get candy.
The reason that I am telling this is that the candle scene here reminded me of the time before we had the lock.
We had to pretend not being in our house on Martin Luther's birthday, basically sitting in the dark after my dad decided that his "listening time" was over. It was hilarious and embarrassing at the same time.
Our only excuse is that in the quarter of my parent's house are no little ones anymore. All the young families are living further away in a huge area with new houses. Therefore there is no danger for anyone but my dad does not want to take a risk! 😂😂😂 Btw: he is no bad guy and he said the moment he has grandchildren the door will be open again. 😂

Edit: My dad is not locking the door anymore because children are not singing in our area anymore.
