==Synopsis==
When Mad Santa and Olga finally breach the North Pole, Santa, and the elves must defend their home.
==Plot==
With Betty back at the North Pole, Noel is given the confidence he needs for Magnus Antas' return as he and Olga come racing back on their sleigh. Back at Santapolis, Scott and Carol arrive to discover that Cal has been turned into a nutcracker and find Kris who is overjoyed to see Santa, after having witnessed him on his first night many years ago. Scott cannot turn Cal back into human form as his magic is weak and Kris reveals that Magnus and Olga just left back at the North Pole, but provides Scott and Carol with a means to travel back as well.
Magnus and Olga arrive at the North Pole where the latter faces off against Betty, her rival. The two fight with their own weapons before crashing through the ground and into the reindeer pen. Olga begins searching the factory and becomes entranced with the place and Betty coerces her. Olga reveals that gnomes only have the ability to build "useful" things rather than toys and creates a printing reel. Betty helps her turn it into a rocket ship and further teaches her that there is an art to creating toys.
Carol reunites with Sandra as they go searching for the magical amulet before Magnus does. Scott meets up with Magnus and the two have a childish confrontation. The gnomes arrive, but instead of helping Magnus, they are helping Scott. Noel has convinced them that their animosity between them is futile and have decided to mend their ways. The heroes discover too late that the amulet was melted down into a cup that Scott had drunken from for years. Magnus, who was drinking from it, now has his powers back. Scott and La Befana realize that Sandra's powers stem from Christmas spirit around them and she uses her enhanced witch powers to turn Cal back to normal who then grabs the cup from Magnus.
Scott refuses to turn Magnus into a nutcracker again as while a human, he is flawed, but he empathizes with people. This confuses Magnus and he puts himself away in a jail cell. Scott and Carol talk some sense into him and Kris reveals that having him at Santapolis has been great as he brought literal magic to the park. Magnus decides to become an entertainer with Kris at his park. The North Pole celebrates with a prom for Cal as Riley is brought back up and the two resume a relationship. Olga decides to part ways from Magnus amicably, yet tensely as well. Sandra and Befana happily confirm that the Easter Bunny has reverted to normal, though he apparently was not happy with them. Scott and Carol learn that Betty will continue her Kribble Krabble, but Noel has opted to go with her as well. Despite the possibility that they will never return, as was the case with Bernard and Curtis, the two happily depart to live life on Earth.
Seven months later, Magnus and Kris happily perform together at Santapolis with the Calvins in attendance. They quickly depart to continue their Christmas round for the year with Scott breaking the fourth wall to tell the audience "...and a Merry Christmas to you too."
