On this episode, Chris decides to peel back the onion on Christmas traditions and comes to a disturbing conclusion: Santa Claus is actually a kingpin running a sweatshop of enslaved workers. After a disastrous trip to a low-budget Santa meet-and-greet that looked like it was hosted at Four Seasons Total Landscaping, Chris explains why taking your children to sit on a stranger's lap is essentially the same as introducing them to Al-Qaeda.

Meanwhile, the gang accidentally forms their new favorite rock band, Judah and the Maccabees, with Miranda on drums and Scott confusing the lead singer for the guy who betrayed Jesus.

Also in this episode:
