— Hailey Banks

"**We Wish You a Merry Chaos-Mas**" is the twentieth episode in the first season of ***Hailey's On It!***. It is also the thirty-seventh episode of the season overall and premiered on December 1, 2023 on Disney Channel.

Plot
In 2074, the Professor is hosting her company's Christmas party, with all the employees using their access cards to travel to different time periods and pulling pranks. Despite having fun, the Professor asks for all their access cards so as not to cause anymore trouble as it is the 50th anniversary of Hailey's successful Oceanside Christmas party. In the present, Hailey is hard at work putting together the party with Scott, Beta, and Darryl, the latter who is once again incompetent at simple tasks. Hailey is trying to complete her latest item which is to put together a successful Christmas party. Scott reveals that he purchased Rudy the Skateboarding Reindeer which Hailey approves of.
While at home putting together her Christmas song, which Beta tells her is terrible, Hailey is interrupted by the arrival of the Professor who has come to hide her employee's time travel access cards. She attempts to link back to the future, only to realize that she can't open the access points in the present, nor is her portal opener working due to a drained battery, leaving her stuck in the past. While recharging her portal opener, Hailey and Beta realize that the Professor is rather annoying, but that the Christmas party they will throw will be a success due to Rudy's appearance, shocking Beta into realizing that Scott's plan will actually work.
The Professor is shocked to learn that recharging will take 50 years due to the technology, so Hailey takes the Professor to the beach as the power batteries that she is using for the party will be strong enough to charge the portal opener faster. Rudy arrives, but Scott accidentally opens a portal and Rudy goes in. When Hailey attempts to get him back, she briefly interacts with the Professor's coworker Deandre who seems oblivious to Christmas. The Professor realizes that due to Rudy's absence, the Christmas party fails and falls out of favor in the future. Despite initial panic, Hailey summons the gumption to throw together the best party ever.
Hailey recruits several acquaintances from the past to help perform for the show while the Professor and Beta try to recharge the portal again. While Hailey's show is leaning towards disaster, the Professor and Beta are shocked to learn that Scott is actually incredibly helpful to them. Hailey is forced to perform her song, but a chaos bot appears and turns the power out. Hailey performs a simpler version of her song which goes over well. The power comes back on, ironically using the chaos bot, and Christmas is restored in the future as Deandre appears with Rudy flying through the air. The Professor returns to her time with a sliding penguin toy as Hailey, her parents, and Scott celebrate Christmas.
