* {{Homage}}: In addition to the Nativity, Christmas Carol and Rudolph stories, a more subtle one comes at the end of the episode where Rabb and Boone encounter a newly-graduated naval aviator at the Vietnam Memorial.

Bud and Harriet are suffering from a glitch that's delaying their paychecks and Warrant Officer Scoggins (Creator/TomVirtue) is less than sympathetic. The two of them are officers worried about looking like bad hosts at a dinner party, rather than enlisted personnel fighting for their very survival.
Meanwhile, Commander Rabb and Admiral Boone (Creator/TerryOQuinn), a former Seahawk CAG are aboard the USS Coral Sea looking for a way to get back to the East Coast in time for Bud and Harriet's Christmas party. The Coral Sea CAG refuses to let Rabb pilot a Tomcat that's due back at Lakehurst until a surprise inspection forces him to let Rabb do it, with the dire warning that he do nothing beyond the assignment.
