Carlos: It's the perfect shopping holiday experience!

A woman who is standing behind Carlos looks at him.

Jo rolls her eyes.

Kendall: Yes, but you don't have 3 friends who are hockey players. Like me.

Kendall snaps his fingers. James, Logan, and Carlos appear behind Jett. They tackle Jett.

Jett: Huh? Oh, no! No! Be careful! Don't! Guys, I bruise easily! 

Jett: And this is my gift to you. (shows Kendall a hockey stick wrapped with wrapping paper with a mistletoe stuck on top)

Jennifer: Well, all of these are. And I need help packing. I have to get all of these presents in the carry-on bag so we don't get charged a fortune.

Katie: Who cares? Tomorrow is Christmas. With toys, and snow, and toys!

Jennifer: Christmas is not about toys. It's about giving and being with the people that you love.

Kendall, Logan, Carlos, and Katie turn to each other.

Kendall, Carlos, Logan, Katie: No, it's about toys.

James walks in, with tattered clothes and kiss marks on his cheeks.

James: Mistletoe. Bad.

Gustavo: (to Kelly) Kelly, get them something surprising for Christmas and ship it to them. Let the holidays begin!

Kendall, James, Carlos, Logan, Gustavo and Kelly get excited. As they are about to head out, they are stopped by Griffin.

Griffin: Great news, everyone. I've decided to release a Big Time Rush Christmas EP. Since it will bring your fans lots of holiday joy. And me, lots of holiday money. 

Kelly: So, you're putting extended mixes in Christmas packaging.

Griffin: No. I'm putting Christmas songs in Christmas packaging. 

Gustavo: Uh, we haven't recorded any Christmas songs. 

Griffin: Well, then you better get started, because no one is going anywhere, until I get my holiday songs. 

All: What?

***

Rocque Records office, recording studio.

Gustavo: Three Christmas songs and make our flight by tonight?! It can't be done! 

Griffin: Sure it can. It's called a Christmas miracle. 

Carlos: Oh, like me getting kissed by the Jennifers today? 

James: Oh, I heard this old lady lost her artificial leg, right? And found it next morning in her stocking.

Griffin: See? I want the songs available for download tonight. Now, since it's Christmas Eve, I'm off to the office to fire some people. I will check in with you later. 

Griffin leaves.

Kendall: We should do this. I think it would be nice to give our fans a Christmas gift.

Gustavo: I can't write three songs in three hours. 

Kelly walks to the wall full of record plaques. She points to one for "Yard Squirrel Christmas" selling 1,000,000 copies.

Kelly: Actually, you wrote "Yard Squirrel Christmas" in five minutes and it's still your biggest selling single, ever.


***

A record player is playing a song with sped-up vocals. Next to the record player is the cartoony cover for "Yard Squirrel Christmas".

Sped-up voices: (singing) It's a Yard Squirrel Christmas, but all we hear is this... 

Gustavo: (yelling) YARD SQUIRRELS!!!! 

***


Gustavo: It was just a stupid novelty song with sped-up voices and I hated it. 

Carlos: Hey, I loved that song. 

All: Everybody loved that song. 

Gustavo: I write the best pop songs in the world. And I will NOT be remembered for some stupid squirrel song. 

Kendall: Well, then, it's time to write a new Christmas classic. 

Carlos: You can do it, Gustavo. You're a genius. 

James: You have the power to get us home for Christmas.

Kelly: And get yourself to Fiji. 

Gustavo: Get me blank music sheets, 13 candy canes, and a cup of cocoa with marshmallows piled high. Because we're about to pull off a Big Time Christmas miracle. 

The gang cheers.

The suitcase gets full and Katie sits down.

Jennifer: Katie, those are the presents! 

Katie: I can't help it. It's almost Christmas. And I'm jonesing for holiday cheer. 

Jennifer: Hey, there is plenty of cheeriness around here. Look at our tree.

A mini Christmas tree sits on top of the countertop with only a few ornaments put on. One ornament falls off and shatters.

Jennifer: Well, you can help me pack these presents or you can check the lobby for your Christmas cheer. 

Katie runs out. Jennifer is stressed after finding out she has a lot of presents.

***

Palm Woods hotel lobby.

Katie finds that the lobby is not decorated. Mr. Bitters walks in.

Katie: Dude, this is the saddest lobby, ever. Where is the big tree? Where is the tinsel? Where are the blinking lights? 

Mr. Bitters: Where's the people? Gone for the holidays. So, I don't need to decorate. And I can't wait for you and the hockey hits to leave because I love my Palm Woods empty. 

Katie: Seriously? You're not going to hang one ornament? 

Mr. Bitters: You want some holiday cheer? (takes out a moldy candy cane) Found this in the laundry room. Have a Palm Woods Christmas.

Katie takes the candy cane.

Katie: I'm eating this.

Kendall: Well, whenever we want to get into a Christmassy mood...

Kendall, James, Carlos, Logan: (in unison) We just get into our...

The boys hide behind the couch and come out wearing pajamas.

Kendall, James, Carlos, Logan: (in unison) PJs! Whoo-ooh!

Gustavo looked flabbergasted. Kelly is shocked.

Kelly: How do they do that?

Logan: They're cottony, holiday joy.

Logan and Kendall hold an extra pair.

Gustavo: Yeah, I'm not wearing PJs.

Logan and Kendall drop the extra pair of pajamas.

Carlos: Uh... we could try decorating the place.

Kelly: Ooh! I've always wanted to decorate the studio for Christmas.

Kendall, James, Carlos, Logan: Bingo!

Gustavo: Yeah, yeah, that's a great idea. Let's just waste a couple hours driving around town (loudly) and buying Christmas decorations.

Kendall: What are you talking about? Every company in this building is already gone for the holidays.

Carlos: Yeah. I'm sure they wouldn't mind if we "borrowed" some decorations.

Kelly smirks. Gustavo takes off his sunglasses.

Kendall, James, Carlos, Logan: Go, go, go!

Producer: Okay, you've got five minutes to change and get ready for your duet with Fabio.

They walk out.


Kendall, James, Carlos, Logan, Gustavo, and Kelly peek out from a set piece.

Gustavo: All we have to do is get dreamboat Fabio to not make his performance.

Kendall: The producer will freak. How are we going to replace Fabio in such short notice?

Carlos: That's when we show up, when we're checking on a show. 

Logan: Hey, do you need somebody to sing a duet with Miranda? 

James: We're Big Time Rush. We're a band.

Fabio: This is not beary nice. 

The gang pushes the bin, only for them to notice Miranda walking with the producer.

Logan: Miranda, Miranda! 

The gang pushes the cart to another dressing room. Suddenly, Miranda and the producer are walking up to the second dressing room.

When the gang arrived in the dressing room, Logan hurriedly closes the door.

Logan: Please tell me this isn't whose dressing room I think it is. 

Carlos takes off the Baby Bear head, while James takes off the Mama Bear head and Kendall takes off the Papa Bear head.

Kendall: Oh no, don't call the police. We're allergic to police. 

Logan: We weren't Fabio-napping. We were just hiding him so we could sing with Miranda. Sorry, Fabio? 

Carlos: Look, if we don't record thee songs by today, our grinchy CEO won't let us go home for Christmas. 

James: We're Big Time Rush, we're a band. 

Miranda: They're really cute. 

Producer: They locked Fabio in a costume bin! 

Miranda: Yeah, but they're really cute. 

Producer: My daughter does love their album. 

Fabio: And they did put some tasty snacks (shows a plate of fruits) and a movie to watch for me. (shows a DVD player) And by the way, I'm a horrible singer. 

Miranda: He's right, he's a horrible singer. 

Carlos: (sings) And we can sing... 

Kendall: (sings) Sing... 

Logan: (sings) Sing... 

Kendall, James, Carlos, and Logan: (singing) Sing.

Kendall: So, how are we doing? 

Miranda: Honestly... it could go either way.
