6On Christmas Eve, Jake rebels against his family's embarrassing family traditions, only to be taught the true meaning of Christmas when he has to reunite a lost baby sasquatch with his family.
7
8----
9* AnAssKickingChristmas: Jake has to spend Christmas Eve fighting around New York trying to rescue a baby sasquatch from Rotwood and the Huntsboys in order to ensure the baby's family doesn't tear the city apart trying to find him.
10* ChaosOfTheBells: A riff of the song's chorus plays as Spud throws his nana's fruitcake at the Huntsclan chopper to disable it.
11* ChekhovsGun: Nana Spudinski's fruitcake, which defeats the Huntsclan so Jake can rescue the baby Sasquatch and return it to its family.
12* ChristmasEpisode: Like is the case with [[HalloweenEpisode "The Halloween Bash"]], it's in the title.
13* EveryoneHatesFruitcakes: The fruitcake Spud gives Jake not only looks like a football but tastes like one as well.
14* EveryoneIsChristianAtChristmas: Mostly played straight, but averted with Spud who goes around celebrating all the December holidays at once thanks to his extended family of different faiths all being in town.
15* DigitalPiracyIsOkay: Haley implies that she pirated a replacement album of Jonathan's "Jingle Bells Barnyard" record.
16-->'''Haley:''' I'll download a replacement. [[BlatantLies Legally, of course.]]
17* FourthWallObserver: Fu Dog acts as the episode's LemonyNarrator.
18* TheGrinch: Jake doesn't mind Christmas in general. It's just his family's embarrassing tendency to go over the top with the celebrations that have caused him to sour over the years.
19* HereWeGoAgain: Jungle Jingle Bells upsets Jake worse than Barnyard Jingle Bells.
20* MusicalisInterruptus: Fu attempts to musically recap the first half of the episode once coming back from commercial break, but is stopped short by first swallowing a bug and then having the sasquatch herd throw a train car at him.
21* {{Rimshot}}: Performed diegetically when Spud makes a "Sasquatch-ewan" pun.
22* SexySantaDress: ''Jake'' himself winds up in one of these after he accidentally winds up in the middle of a holiday show, with the performers assuming he's there for the Chinese New Year portion and just running with it.
23-->'''Jake''': Suddenly, I'm really missing that Christmas sweater.
24* TheStinger: Fu Dog advertises his Sasquatch-themed Christmas record, only for him to realize he's got a bomb on his paws when all the songs are just Sasquatch shrieks.
25* TrueMeaningOfChristmas: Spending time with family, dorky traditions and all.
26* VillainousRescue: Huntsboys #88 and #89 end up saving the baby sasquatch when it's scared out of the Central Park Christmas Tree by the lights being turned on.
