Plot
[edit]In the North Pole, Santa Claus and elf Isaac are working on a machine to make toys since toy production is falling behind, when an announcement over the loudspeaker summons them to elf Burton Lemon's office. Burton has created a machine that can create any toy, however the toys this machine creates only last a few second before exploding.
Unimpressed, Santa refused to use the dangerous machine. Burton runs away and vows revenge, only to fall into the machine and be reincarnated as a magical snowman named Snowman. So, Santa and Isaac decide to fight Snowman so he does not ruin Christmas. Meanwhile, a young girl sings to her brother about the "light of Christmas".
Using their rocket ship Sled II, Santa uses the light of the Christmas Light to find his way. They find the Christmas Light surrounding a house, where Santa finds Jennifer, who agrees to help him defeat Snowman. Though Santa is in a position to kill Snowman, Jennifer refuses to let him do so. During this inaction, Snowman delivers a final blow to Sled II, causing it to crash.
Santa, Isaac, and Jennifer all survive the crash. While Santa and Isaac try to repair the ship, Jennifer follows the Christmas Light to a nearby cave, where the Snowman is waiting. Seeing the goodness in the Snowman, she sings to him, causing him to melt back into Burton, who expresses his thanks and apologizes for his actions. The Sled II is repaired, and Burton vows to spend his life helping others.
