Santa Claus (Bryan Cranston) has three sons; Mel, Daryl and Roy, but he can't decide who will take over the family business. Even though the triplets have had at least one hundred years of training under the guidance of the chief elf Snorkel, none of them seem to know what the true meaning of Christmas is. Santa sends his sons on a quest to find the true meaning of Christmas. Whichever one of his triplets can first understand the true meaning of the holiday can have the family business.
