He adds ... "I had to do something. I finally found a crisis center that would come out and do an on-site evaluation."

Jacob explains the former child star was evaluated by the crisis center, and workers decided he needed to be taken in to receive "medical attention" at a Riverside-area hospital.

The siblings specifically asking for a "Black lab" ... but the duo makes it clear to Santa by emphasizing how he must "make sure it is real" -- so seems like Santa certainly got the message.

When asked by Khloé as to why she "figured" she would fail, Kim confesses she knew her essays weren’t strong enough and that’s what tripped her up.

Kris, unable to hide her sympathy, says, “It sucks because you worked so hard" ... whereas Khloé goes straight for the punch and chimes in during a call with Kim and her professor Chris, saying she shouldn't be shooting "a TV show during this time when she's needing to memorize lines and memorize law."

Our source tells us he did take the mask off during the performance when the lights were down, but made sure to put it back on during intermission and at the end of the show.

She didn't include any cryptic hints in her caption about the guy -- just the emojis 😉😉💅🏻👠👠 -- but we're working on it.
