It is Christmastime in Pleasant Valley and Albert is ready to usher in the season. This year he's got an important surprise for his friends -- Santa Claus is making a visit to their hometown. But it's not just for fun and games, this is one of Santa's official stops. And that means Albert and his friends have just twelve minutes to feed the reindeer and wax their antlers, squeegee the windshield on the sleigh, and do everything else before all of Santa's systems are go. Then it's countdown to liftoff, with a special thanks from Santa to all of his helpers.
