Helen hands Drake a Santa costume to wear in the mall, replacing Josh; Drake makes out with a teenage girl, but an annoyed Josh yells "Santa!" to separate them. While hiding from a woman looking to kiss him, Drake meets a little girl named Mary Alice (Bailee Madison). who says she and her family want the best Christmas ever.
