Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHThe episode starts with cruisers talking about who they are most existed to see - Tyler Hynes, Taylor Cole, Jonathan Bennett, everyone! With little clips of what's to come this season. Lots of hugging. Lots of crying. We meet Paige, Alexandrea and their mom Kerry. The Vermeer family. Mom cries when talking about how excited she is to go on this cruise. Alexandra is the daughter in law but she feels like they're the family she's always wanted and both Alexandrea and Paige talk about how much momma Kerry has done for them. They show up at the cruise and are wearing matching Vermeer Girls sweatshirt. They're blown away by all the decorations. The room though? Tiny. It's a twin bed with a single bed over top. And they immediately get to work on decorating their door. That's a big deal for cruisers. We then meet Rob & Donna - they've been together for 9 years. Rob is freakin jacked. He broke both of her ribs after trying to pop her back at the gym. And that's true love. They have a bunch of hallmark actor ornaments in their tree. She loves Paul Campbell and he loves Nikki DeLoach. They get on board and immediately bump into Jonathan Bennet and he's just wheeling and dealing like Jonathan Bennet is one to do.,We then meet Carol, Cathy, and Nate who is celebrating his 16th birthday on the cruise and he is pumped. Nate is there with his two grandmas. And he's a bit of a celeb because he posted on the cruise Facebook group that it's his birthday. We then meet Lori and her sister. They live in separate states so they're so excited to go on this cruise. Lori is a fellow Christmas crazy and is excited to decorate their room. The Veneer family are back and momma Kerry talks about how she's happily married and she knows Wes Brown is happily married, but she has been given a hall pass in case Wes is interested. She calls it her hallmark pass. My guy Rob is gonna propose to Donna and is hoping they can get married on the cruise! Night 1 comes and it's time for the Christmas tree lighting on top of the ship. We then meet Alice and Gail. Best friends since 10th grade, 46 years ago. And they are our black friends. They're excited to meet Tyler Hynes. And Alicia is gonna try to get Gail to get out of her comfort zone. So everyone's up on top of the ship. JB comes out and does his thing. Tyler Hynes comes on stage in a bath robe. It's a whole thing. Paige is very into him and she thinks they would hit it off really well. She yells at him to take it off. While momma Kerry is just going nuts over Wes Brown. We find out Paige has some news she has to tell her mom - she's moving out of Texas. But she's nervous .Victoria tells her sister Lora she's pregnant right after Lora gets them both champagne. Rob and Donna get a picture with Erin Cahill and of course she's just the sweetest. They talk to her for a bit. We find out that Donna had to have brain surgery last holiday season. So they're both really excited to be there. And he's trying to find the right time to propose to her. But not while Erin Cahill is there. It's time for Carol-oke. Gail and Alicia show up. Alicia signs them up. Gail is pissed. She does not get to that stage and Alicia shames her from the stage.  We get Gail in a confessional having to psychoanalyze why she doesn't wanna get out of her comfort zone. The sisters show up for trivia, hosted by Nikki DeLoach and Andrew Walker. And Andrew is just hugging everyone. And these sisters suck at trivia. And then there's the boot shot with Tyler Hynes. It's madness. Paige is pumped. But then Wes Brown walks in and Kerry is pumped. They hug. And Paige says “I've been told to call you step-dad”. And then Kerry says it …. You're my hallmark pass. Wes is just so chill. JB is also there and Paige is like can you give Tyler Hynes my number? And he's like I can do that. And I'm weirdly invested in this. Nate has lost his grandmas. So he's going around and asking “has anyone seen some grandmas?”. Turns out they're hiding becuase they're annoyed by Nate. Turns out his birthday isn't even today, it's December 10th. Fricken liar. So Rob goes into the gym and Paul Campbell is there. They have matching black tanks. So he tells him that he's gonna propose and wants to get married on the ship. Paul is like hey I can officiate your wedding here. He pulls Andrew walker in. Rob is like oh boy. Now I really need to ask her.

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHPrettyLitter.com/DTH - 20% off your first order + a free toy Kate reluctantly works at her family's business, North Star, a year-round operation that trains Mall Santas nationwide. Despite its festive name, it's a big commitment that's made her a bit grumpy about Christmas. When her dad decides to step away, Kate steps in, but the business is a mess. Her sister, Bailey, agrees to help her out.Her rival and top instructor, Dan, works for a different Santa school. This school wins the Christmas Cup every year. After Dan gets fired for making too much money, he approaches Kate—despite their awkward past (they once went on a date, or a "scheduled gathering," if you will). He wants to join forces and win the Christmas Cup. She can't say no to that.They carpool on the first day and have to screech to a halt when a Santa walks in front of them in the road. He's very confused. He doesn't know his name or what he's doing. It's at this point that they see Santa's reindeer and sleigh fly away. Is he the real deal?! They decide to bring him to the school so they can keep an eye on him.They get to the school, and Dan is immediately concerned. It's a real ragtag group: an older fellow who just wants to be Santa for his grandkids, a woman who wants to prove she can do anything she puts her mind to, a ventriloquist and his dummy, some actor named Paul Campbell, and then there's Nick...who has a giant bowl of cookies and just downs some milk.The Santas begin to train, participating in obstacle courses and learning how to properly "ho-ho-ho." Santa Nick begins to have weird memory flashes whenever he touches someone but doesn't know how to make heads or tails of it.The next test is a big one—they have to actually deal with kids at the mall, and it's intense for all of them...except Santa Nick. He crushes it. He knows what all the kids want. But he also sees what Kate's dad's friend, Ned, wants—he wants to buy the school. So Kate has a conversation with him, and she's strongly considering his offer.There's a gift exchange, and Kate gives Dan a nice gift—a Christmas sweater that says he's the "Best Santa Trainer," so obviously, she's into him. He asks her on a date, and she agrees. And what better way to go on a date than by crashing a Christmas party? They have an absolute blast together. They get kicked out, and that leads to them making out... The next morning, they make out some more... AY AY AY!!!!Word gets out to Kate's sister and the other Santas that Nick is the real Santa. It's almost Christmas Eve, and Nick still hasn't regained his memories. Kate decides to try something—she shows Nick his Santa sack. He begins to go through it, and he gets a reindeer whistle and calls for his sleigh to come back.Dan finds out that Kate is considering selling the school, and that bums him out. He assumes that also means she doesn't see a future with him, so he decides it's best if he just leaves.It's time for the Christmas Cup. It ends in a tie. It comes down to sudden death. First person to beat the obstacle course wins! They draw names, and it's Nick's turn to go. Just then, Nick's wife shows up. Turns out his name is Kris, and she is Mrs. Claus! The whistle told her where he was. She reminds him who he is. He goes to do the obstacle course, and he's behind the whole time until they get to the chimney climb. Somehow, almost like magic, Nick/Kris appears at the top of the chimney and rings the bell.After the win, Kate decides not to sell the school. Santa gives her tickets to Paris and tells her that she still needs to live her life. Kate and Dan make up, and they kiss... They all head back to her place to celebrate, and the doorbell rings. She goes to answer it and finds a box. Inside is a whistle with a note that says, "If you ever need any help with the school, give me a call."
