maybe they suspected them to have a bomb inside?
πSeason's greetings!π

Too much time spent with nothing happening, plus it's annoying to have that many copies of the package for shooting an unknown number of takes. That's why you'll see in most TV shows that they use gift bags instead - they can just pull things out immediately.
