Cette année, le Père Noël décide qu'Henry ne travaillera pas dans l'atelier de jouets, mais en tant qu'elfe d'étable. Déçu de ne pas pouvoir aider les autres elfes à fabriquer les jouets, il décide d'en bricoler un lui-même. Malheureusement pour lui, ce jouet devient vite incontrôlable et il s'envole avec les rennes du Père Noël. Ensuite, le sac contenant les jouets tombe du traîneau et Henry saute afin de les rattraper, mais il atterrit dans un arbre. Il va notamment faire appel à Beethoven pour l'aider à retrouver les jouets afin que les enfants ne voient pas leur fête gâchée.

Prickly, Grotke and Finster head home during a snowstorm and remember the times with T.J. and the gang. When they get stuck in a snowbank, Prickly blames it on T.J. and the gang, although Grotke says there is a logical explanation, considering that T.J. and the kids are not around the snowbank. As Grotke and Finster tell their stories about their experiences with T.J. and the gang, they are rescued, from where they are trapped, by T.J. and the gang, and Prickly admits T.J. and the others aren't so bad, to which Finster agrees, saying it really makes her feel more warm and fuzzy than before. The film ends with T.J. and the gang singing their version of Jingle Bells, describing their classmates and teachers.
