This episode did not have me in stitches, although there were a few funny parts I have to say. Let me begin.
We start at the diner where Caroline is extra chipper about Thanksgiving. She is going to see her father for the first time since his arrest in prison. They used to spend every Thanksgiving feeding the homeless (don't look at me) and then sunbathing in St. Barts for 2 weeks (OK you can look at me now) - gotta love Max's candidness. She convinces Han that he should open the diner to the homeless. Olaf decides to pay for the turkeys out of this wad of cash.
Back in Brookelyn, we find that Chestnut is using a moving blanket instead of something fancy this year. She asks Max to teach her how to bake so they can get a head start on Christmas baskets. She starts off well until she somehow breaks the mixer (of course). They head to a department store hoping to buy a new one, but they are all too expensive. All they can afford is a wooden spoon.
Caroline sees a sign for help wanted for Elves. She signs up her and Max. They are sitting in the hallway waiting to see if they got in when they meet another cheery person named Marry - who tells them that her brother calls her "Marry Christmas". Her and Caroline have an annoying Tet-a-Tet about what their fave Xmas feel good movies are and then her phone rings. Daddy dearest tells her he doesn't want her to come. I assume he is too embarrassed, but of course Caroline cannot handle this. Her smile goes into a frown and they are accepted as elves.
They are exhausted from a whole night of feeding the homeless so they take a 9-hour energy shot. Directions say to sip, Caroline takes it like a vodka shot. Max of course makes some witty comments afterwards. Gotta love her. Caroline is bouncing off the walls, gets a pair of tights with period stains (cuts the crotch out) and is left alone as an elf with Marry Christmas as Max gets promoted for an extra $2 per hour to be Mrs. Claus.
Back at the village, Caroline is flipping out, saying mean things and telling kids there is no Christmas and they should know that money is the only thing that will buy them presents. Max tries to calm her down and Marry Christmas stomach punches her which sends her catapulting into the wrapping paper sides leaving her legs open and everyone can see her "Winter wonderland". Speaking of this. I got pretty annoyed by the end with all of these analogies and references that I just wanted them to speak normal. Not make everything into something else.
Caroline ends up swiping the wooden spoon before they threw them out and giving it to Max as an early Xmas gift. She realizes she has a lot to be thankful for. She is thankful for Max who gave her a home, found her a job and she is also thankful for her horse. Me too - I love Chestnut! They take $2 from their account to give to Salvation Army and are still BROKE.
