Milo and Oscar throw a Christmas party, but when they need help with the party prep, they send a special holiday request to their favorite magical dude, Fish Santa Claus. Meanwhile, Bea tries out for the role of Fish Mall Santa.

Tropes:

  • Air Guitar: Milo plays one in celebration after he and Bea finish delivering all the gifts for Fish Santa.
  • Big "WHY?!": Bea’s reaction when she sees that Randy Pincherson got the job as Freshwater Mall’s Santa.
  • Camera Abuse: Milo throws a snowball at the camera in the beginning of the episode.
  • Christmas Episode: Milo and Oscar spend Christmas Eve getting ready to host a party, while Bea fights Randy Pincherson for the job of the mall’s Santa.
  • Colossus Climb: Milo climbs up the front of Santa’s body to ask him if he can be his little helper.
  • Finger Muzzle: When Oscar is thanking him for taking care of all the Christmas party setup so he can try to clear up his acne, Milo puts his fin up to his mouth and shushes him.
    Blue alien: Your greasy smile says it all.
  • Fingore: Oscar’s zit-filled face scares Fish Santa so badly that it makes him fall into the tank’s filter and break every single one of his human-looking fingers.
  • Grave Humor: One of the tombstones in the graveyard the goths are making a bat-shaped snow angel in says “Here lies Jack Cheese”.
  • Gross-Up Close-Up:
    • On Milo’s dirty and acne-covered face after he tells Milo to use chocolate-flavored grease pizza to cure his zit like he does.
    • On Fish Santa’s back which is covered with scales, hair, and a big mole.
  • Handbag of Hurt: When Fish Santa suddenly appears behind him, Milo pulls out a purse and starts hitting him with it.
  • High-Pressure Emotion: Fish Santa’s face turns red, steam comes out of his ears, and a kettle sound is heard when he gets frustrated with trying to find a tree topper.
  • Human Snowball: While skiing and snowboarding, Shellsea, Finberley, and Esmargot crash and get rolled into a giant snowball.
  • Human Snowman: During the montage for the “Christmas Party” song, Jumbo Shrimp and Albert Glass get built into snowmen by Jocktopus.
    • Bea also hides in one that looks like Fish Santa Claus to surprise Milo.
  • Mall Santa: Bea gets a role as the Fish Mall’s Fish Santa. Or at least she thought she did…it turns out that she was actually cast as an elf.
  • Santa Claus: Milo gets help from Fish Santa with decorating for the Christmas party he’s hosting.
  • Subbing for Santa: After Fish Santa gets injured, Bea is able to live out her dream of playing Santa by filling in for him.
  • Rise of Zitboy: Oscar freaks out when he gets a zit right before his and Milo’s Christmas party. The stress of all that’s left to do before the party then makes him break out in acne all over his face - even on his eyeballs.
  • Tongue on the Flagpole: While “Christmas Party” plays, Clamantha gets her tongue stuck to a flagpole.
  • Worst. Whatever. Ever!: Bea walks into Oscar and Milo’s place saying “Worst. Christmas Eve. Ever!” after her fight with Randy Pincherson at the mall.
