Larry Newley is sitting at home, talking to his daughter via a web camera. When he logs off, he hears banging from upstairs, and then goes to see what is causing the noise. He seems suprised at whatever is there. A glowing light then flies around his living room, before flying up the chimney with a "Ho ho ho." Pete and Myka are walking into the warehouse. They speak about what they are doing during the holidays, and Myka throws a snowball at Pete. They enter Artie's office, and are greeted by Claudia, who has decorated the office using christmas-y artifacts; lights glow in the room like fairies, the original mistletoe hangs from the celing, and Claudia manages to make it snow marshmallows. Claudia seems excited that she is going to have people around for Christmas, as she has never had family around before. Pete and Myka then disappoint her by saying that they are spending time with their families over the holiday. Artie then walks in, extremely annoyed that Claudia has decorated his office with "dangerous" artifacts. He then kisses Claudia's brother under the mistletoe, and promptly demands that the decorations be removed. Realizing where she has seen the artifact, they return to Kallie and Lyla's house to find the artifact; a little submarine ornament nestled in the tree. Picking it up Lyla says Larry got that for Kallie from a German auction and Pete wants a closer look at it and realizes where the artifact might have come from and asks if anyone knows about the Christmas Truce of 1914. He tells them about it and Myka realizes that the harmonious energy of that event was infused in the ornament, turning it into an artifact and that it's been trying to grant Kallie's secret wish to have her family back together. |
Artifacts and Gadgets Featured
Edit
- Christmas Truce Submarine Ornament: A small but incredibly potent artifact; it has the power to grant wishes and has a desire to make the world more harmonious and a better place. It is the main artifact of the episode.
- Swiss Miss Mug: When the cup is shaken, it summons a blizzard-like flurry of marshmallow and cocoa flavoured snow. Claudia nicknamed it the "Swiss Miss-Hap in a Cup".
- Muhammad Ali's Boxing Gloves: Makes you see stars without hitting you.
- Original Mistletoe: Causes people under the mistletoe to forcefully kiss each other. According to Claudia, "it is rather strong".

Trivia
Edit
- The events of Secret Santa most likely take place in between Merge With Caution and Vendetta. This is apparent from the fact that the most recent artifact case mentioned was Mata Hari's Stockings, while the events of Vendetta aren't even mentioned.
- Interestingly, when watched in chronological order, it's easily noticeable that a few of the "revelations" of Vendetta are made reference to in Secret Santa, seemingly before they were originally set to be.
