LOG LINE
Afraid that global overpopulation
will make his job impossible, Santa Claus hires an overweight African
American to cover Australia; though he endures a series of comical
mishaps, the young man with the help of Snowball the Elf comes through
on Christmas Eve and makes his delivery of holiday wishes.
SYNOPSIS
SANTA CLAUS (348) has a big
problem. The global population is reaching seven billion people. There is
no way he can deliver all the presents because it would mean over six
hundred houses per second would need to be passed. Santa and MRS. CLAUS
(335) come up with an idea. They will hire a secret Santa Claus to help
deliver presents. A perfect plan, they just have to keep it secret from
Santa’s main elf, SNOWBALL (82).
As Santa dislikes the warm
December weather down under in Australia and because it’s the only
country where he doesn’t use FLYING REINDEER to propel his sleigh, Mrs.
Claus suggests the new hire be assigned the job of delivering toys solely
in Australia. Enthusiastic about this idea, Santa decides against flying
to Australia in the sleigh for job interviews as this would tire the
reindeer for the soon approaching holiday. Instead, he opts to utilize a
hiring agency in NYC and uses his contacts within the U.S. military to fly
him there by jet.
ARNOLD BAKER, (28) is just out of
a job when he hears that a hardware store is hiring. Santa who is
undercover isn’t happy with any of the prospective employees. When
Arnold walks in Santa already frustrated with the lack of progress is
beside himself – Santa isn’t African American. Arnold picks up
Santa’s magic pouch and makes a wish for the job before Santa can stop
him. Santa now has no choice and explains the truth to Arnold.
Arnold agrees to the Santa job in
Australia. Santa gives Arnold the Santa Claus suitcase that contains the
manual and his Santa outfit. Arnold boards the plane for Australia, not
realizing his suitcase has been left behind. Arnold is immediately smitten
with stewardess CANDY WHITE (28).
When Arnold arrives he realizes
his suitcase is missing. He checks into the hotel. He races to find a
Santa suit, kangaroos, and build a sleigh. He also hunts for Candy White.
Arnold’s missing suitcase shows
at the North Pole. Elf SNOWBALL is furious at Santa for hiring a secret
Santa without his permission. Snowball heads to Australia to find Arnold
and sort out the mess that Santa Claus created.
Snowball locates Arnold and whips
him off and into shape at the Secret Claus Ranch.
It’s Christmas Eve, Santa’s
sleigh is moved outside, and his special team of kangaroos are rounded up
and rigged. Santa Claus rendezvous and drops off Australia’s supply of
Christmas wishes.
Bang, catastrophe the wooden
Sleigh is ruined and Arnold must use the one he built. Piece by piece it
falls apart in a mad capped, magical journey around Australia. Arnold
is pleasantly surprised to find Candy and they make a date.
Santa Claus is cheerful that
Christmas was saved and wants Arnold to come back next year. Arnold sneaks
off to be with Candy – she has the perfect present for him; an outfit to
wear; Arnold opens it and there is nothing inside – exactly! Fireworks
explode!
Snowball knows deep down he’s
just saved the day again!
