Willie T. Stokes è il salace e poco ispirato Babbo Natale di un grande magazzino che proprio non riesce a essere cortese con i clienti. Per di più dietro quell'ingombrante costume rosso si cela uno scassinatore che si limita a compiere un solo colpo grosso all'anno, proprio durante la notte di Natale. Quando i clienti svuotano il centro commerciale diretti a casa, Babbo Natale e il suo intraprendente elfo - Marcus, il socio nano di Willie - svuotano la cassaforte e filano via con il prezioso bottino. Quest'anno, però i due lavorano a Phoenix e il loro furto è messo in pericolo da un direttore particolarmente irritante, da un furbo detective, da una bella ammiratrice di Babbo Natale e da un ingenuo, assillante e strambo ragazzino di otto anni che ha deciso che Willie - per quanto velenoso, acido e cattivo possa sembrare - è il vero Babbo Natale...
