Plot
Overhearing his parents Stephanie and David Tutela having a heated argument, Justin retreats to his bedroom. A few minutes later, Justin peeks downstairs, only to see his mother Stephanie locked in a warm, romantic embrace with none other than Santa Claus (actually his dad in a Santa suit). He takes a photo, shows it to his friend, and then sends it to Mrs. Claus. Fueled by his best friend's worries over his recently-separated parents, Justin jumps to the conclusion that his mother is having an affair with Santa. So, Justin decides to behave as badly as possible in an attempt to prevent Santa from coming to his house on Christmas Eve night for him to at least make off with the boy's mother. The resulting hi-jinks include Justin setting traps and throwing snowballs at a street Santa. Justin's mom receives a letter from the post office. Inside was the photo which didn't actually get sent. In the end, he finds out that Santa was actually his dad and apologizes to the street Santa.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
“The plot was most interesting. It belonged to no particular age, people, or country, and was perhaps the more delightful on that account, as nobody’s previous information could afford the remotest glimmering of what would ever come of it.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“After I discovered the real life of mothers bore little resemblance to the plot outlined in most of the books and articles I’d read, I started relying on the expert advice of other mothers—especially those with sons a few years older than mine. This great body of knowledge is essentially an oral history, because anyone engaged in motherhood on a daily basis has no time to write an advice book about it.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
“Morality for the novelist is expressed not so much in the choice of subject matter as in the plot of the narrative, which is perhaps why in our morally bewildered time novelists have often been timid about plot.”
—Jane Rule (b. 1931)
