Kate North reluctantly takes over her father’s struggling Santa School, where she and a colleague discover an amnesiac Santa Claus and must help him regain his memories through their training program to save both the school and Christmas.

A group of local animal control workers' lives are complicated by the fact that animals are simple, but humans are not. Leading the crew is Frank, an opinionated, eccentric animal control officer who may not have gone to college but is still the most well-read person in the room. In his past life as a cop, Frank tried to expose corruption in his department, but his efforts got him fired, leaving him cynical and curmudgeonly. Despite his rough exterior, he is blessed with an almost superhuman ability to understand animals.
