Synopsis[]
After the mission was accomplished, Steve and Grandsanta had a fight over the game deciding who will be Santa, and Steve rudely dismissed Arthur for being Santa next in line. Steve was upset wanting to know what is happening here and one of the elves used a machine-like device thing to look up the location. After Grandsanta and Arthur's perilous trek from the lions, Steve said that Santa needs to get some rest so he can have Malcolm's job. After Steve Claus talked about one single child, Malcolm Claus was shocked about Steve letting Arthur go, and looked directly to his son not knowing if that's bird poop on Steve's shoulder and Steve corrected his father, and said goodnight in a rude way. When Malcolm and his wife Magaret were leaving, Steve decided to drive his alien like ship, so he could find a child to give a present. But Steve gave the wrong child who speaks in Spanish the present. Steve, Grandsanta, Arthur, Malcolm Claus saw Gwen get her bicycle happily and ended up helping them in the end.
