==Synopsis==
Santa and team step in to salvage Easter at the North Pole.
==Plot==
The Calvins are faced with the decision with having to take care of Easter this year while Befana tries to transform the Easter Bunny back to normal. This causes Noel to become increasingly stressed out, forcing him to wear a watch to monitor his stress levels. Should he go over the top, he could literally explode. Carol and Sandra travel to the Easter Bunny's home to get his things where the former convinces the latter to let her anger go, mainly by destroying the Easter Bunny's furniture (his house was already in disarray). Scott and Cal prepare for the arrival of Sandman to test and see how Cal is doing. The elves give Scott a watch that can transform him back to human and a hat that can make him invisible to those who do not have direct Santa magic.
Magnus uses the vest he got from Cal to refurbish Santaopolis into a literal magical place, hoping that it will get the attention of Scott. Kris is impressed with the changes, though he is unsure of Magnus' plan and even feels left out when his over-the-top persona starts to bring people into the park more than him. The elves pick up on the magic, but are unsure what to do as they do not want to warn Scott for fear that it might stress him. Withe exception of Crouton, the rest of the elves agree not to tell Scott.
Sandman arrives to test Cal, but the group cleverly put him to sleep so that they can continue to plan for Easter. When Sandman wakes up, Scott convinces him that he fell asleep during Cal' flying test and he stubbornly insists that he was awake by passing him. Scott and Cal proceed to travel, via a refurbished sleigh, and go from house to house to leave easter eggs in people's houses. While the night gets messy, as Cal forgot which eggs were real and which ones were stink bombs, the two of them manage to get through it.
Scott decides to take Cal to see Riley so that the two of them can make up, though the latter is slightly nervous. The two of them end up getting caught in traps set up by Magnus who comes rushing with Olga. Carol see the elves panicking and learn about the Mad Santa and the elves' cover-up of his existence. Carol manages to fly to Scott and Cal in time to free them, but encounter Magnus who flings a fire ball at Scott. The Calvins rush back to the sleigh and escape, leaving a furious Magnus behind.
