Plot
In the Man's Nest, two days before Christmas, Chapa is getting hyped ready for Christmas, but sees that the others are not doing anything to help. Chapa is disappointed and tells them that she is very obsessed with Christmas. The others are not. Ray arrives with a book of stories to confront Danger Force with: 'The True Story of Christmas'. He tells them that not that many years ago, Father Time and Mother Nature got married and had two children: Santa Claus and Krampus. Santa was the favorite child, but Krampus was not. Krampus once stole his father's car to go to a concert, so as punishment, Father Time gave Santa the jet ski instead of Krampus. Krampus hated that, since jet skis were one of his favorite things. Krampus went into exile in San Bernardino. As revenge, Krampus wanted to turn everyone into 'Dilweeds' and 'Krampons'. Before he could, Krampus and Santa had an epic battle, where Santa managed to stop his brother by locking him up in Punk Function. Krampus is still locked in there to this day. Ray finishes telling the story with Schwoz playing the guitar in the background. Miles does not believe the story so Ray scares Miles. Later, on Christmas Eve, Schwoz arrives and threw a Christmas bomb, decorating the entire Man's Nest in Christmas stuff. Schwoz reveals that he knows Santa and takes Bose, Mika and Miles to see the injector of the sled. Schwoz explains that he tunes up Santa's sled every year, but hates the reindeer. Ray and Chapa notice the alarm for an incoming object going off, but look outside and see nothing arriving. They initiate PANTS protocol, so Chapa goes outside and shoots into the sky. They see that she hit something and it falls from the sky. It is Santa. Ray realizes that Santa being shot down out of the sky releases Krampus from Punk Function.
Schwoz and the others come back and see that Ray and Chapa are acting strange. They reveal that they accidentally shot Santa down from the sky. They explain that when Chapa hit Santa with her electricity bolts, it caused Santa to temporarily lose his memory. They had to keep Santa locked up so he wouldn't wonder off with amnesia, but as they explain this, Santa has wandered off. They listen to the sound of rock music getting closer and closer, and they notice that Krampus is free. They realize Krampus is now looking for his brother for revenge. In order to protect Santa's location, they fight Krampus. However, Bose accidentally reveals to Krampus that Santa left the Man's Nest. Krampus gives Bose a fist bump in thanks, but it turns Bose into a Dilweed. A Dilweed is what a person turns into when Krampus touches them, making them appear pale-ish, like a zombie, and changing their clothes to a more rebellious look. Krampus declares he will find his brother, then destroy Christmas. Krampus teleports to find his brother and they all decide to go find Santa before it's too late. Meanwhile, Schwoz tries to repair the sleigh and turn Bose back to normal.
In the KLVY, Trent and Mary interview Percy and Miriam who had found Santa and have him safely in a bag and Ray and Chapa arrive in time to save Santa and Krampus appears in the KLVY in search of his brother and says in the news that he will destroy Christmas forever and turns Mary and Percy into Dilweeds and then Trent and Miriam and their henchmen turn and Chapa shoots Krampus and Krampus falls to the ground but he did no harm and is ready to destroy Christmas and Ray and Chapa escape with Santa and Krampus was dancing at the KLVY with Trent, Mary, Percy and Miriam.
