SUMMARY:  In this sequel to Rudolph, the Red Nosed Reindeer, the grumpy Kris Kringle is once again disappointed with all the bad little boys and girls and decides to cancel Christmas.  Jessica - Mrs. Claus - is finally tired of his self-absorbed crap and decides to strike out on her own, returning to her old life as a teacher in Southtown.  Kris decides to drink away his problems in the company of his bartender, Frosty the Snowman, but Sam the Snowman arrives looking like he's up to no good.  Meanwhile, among the reindeer, Coach Comet admits to his daughter Clarice that he's gay, while Hermey the Elf, now happy in his new career as a dentist, is out and proud and having a passionate affair with Fireball.  And Jessica learns that Southtown is now called "Los Angeles," and is in for a rude awakening when she's offered a teaching job in South Central.
