It’s the day before Christmas and Santa Claus has lost his Christmas spirit! Specifically, he can’t muster a single jolly “ho, ho, ho!”
Mrs. Claus is understandably worried and becomes intent on bringing back Santa’s holiday cheer for the sake of Christmas everywhere. She calls in elves and reindeer in an attempt to help Santa out of his funk. Zippo and Zappo tell some jokes; chefs from the North Pole kitchen try to cheer Santa up with sweet treats; the quiet reindeer try to get a giggle out of the Big Guy with some silly silent routines... but nothing works! Even the modern entertainment stylings of the Twinkletoe Troupe Dancers or a kazoo medley by the Merry Mistletoe Players fail to get a response from despondent old St. Nick! By the time prankster elves Frankie and Freddie arrive on the scene, Mrs. Claus has begun to lose hope.
But just when it looks like Christmas will be all doom-and-gloom, Mrs. Claus remembers the true joy of the holidays and finds a way to bring back Santa’s Christmas cheer — and his booming “ho, ho, ho!”
