​

Ray awakens from a coma to learn that the country is celebrating Christmas every month, (Hanukkah every quarter), in order to stimulate the economy. “A Christmas Carol” is constantly playing at the local community theatre, Christmas lights blaze all night, and there’s enough fruitcake to choke a camel. Ray himself is different and his bitter attitude is affecting his fiancée, Mary. When she expresses her frustration with not being able to stop the multiple Christmases, and more importantly, with Ray’s behavior, he pulls a stunt that lands him in jail.  There he is visited by the mother of the young man who caused Ray’s terrible car accident. Ray also discovers why Mary can’t make any progress in protesting monthly Christmases—a spy! After finding a hidden microphone in their house, Mary and a few family friends come up with a scheme to catch the spy. Will it work, and will Ray ever get the true Christmas spirit?
