Most of Santa's OG Reindeer Crew (Blitzen, Prancer et al)\u003cbr\u003e      have retired or been fired in disgrace, leaving some rookie reindeers\u003cbr\u003e      to take the sleigh reins. This Christmas Eve, Dave\u003cbr\u003e      is behind Rudolph in the procession flying ahead of Santa's sleigh,\u003cbr\u003e      and is the recipient of a fart-in-the-face that is the LAST STRAW.\u003cbr\u003e      He unclips Rudolph's harness, and Rudolph blithely flies off,\u003cbr\u003e      monologuing away to himself. Santa makes an emergency landing\u003cbr\u003e      on the roof of 9 year old Holly's family, where her dad is wobbling\u003cbr\u003e      about on the roof trying to switch on the exterior Christmas\u003cbr\u003e      lights. The lights explode and blast the reindeers to far-flung\u003cbr\u003e      corners of the Earth. Holly must fly Dave around the globe rescuing\u003cbr\u003e      the reindeer from various outlandish situations - one\u003cbr\u003e      is on a beach in Tahiti and has no intention of putting down his\u003cbr\u003e      cocktail and working flat-out all Christmas eve, thank-you-very-much,\u003cbr\u003e      one is perched precariously on top of the Empire State Building,\u003cbr\u003e      one has landed slap bang in the middle of the icy Arctic, perilously\u003cbr\u003e      close to a very hungry polar bear. Rudolph has made it to\u003cbr\u003e      Las Vegas and has a sell-out one-reindeer show to put on.
