Eric's Christmas Sprit isn't burning the brightest, resulting in Kitty volunteering him to direct the Church's annual Christmas pageant, in an attempt to get him in the holiday mood. However, with his friends wanting him to change everything about the pageant, Eric gets so cynical that he quits and goes home. It takes Leo to get the others to remember what Christmas is all about, who in turn share what they learned with Eric, who agrees to come back to help with the pageant.
