Go To

The four girls all plan to visit their respective families on Christmas Day. However, their plans were soon foiled when they were held hostage by a man dressed as Santa Claus at the Grief Counseling Center where Rose works.


Tropes:

  • A-Cup Angst: Dorothy sets Blanche straight about her figure while planning how to overpower the man holding them hostage:
    Blanche: I have been told I bare a striking resemblance to Miss Cheryl Ladd, although my breasts are perkier.
    Dorothy: Not even if you were hanging upside down on a TRAPEZE!
  • Bad Santa: The girls are held hostage on Christmas Eve at the grief counseling center by a man dressed as Santa Claus who has no other way spending Christmas with others without forcing them at gunpoint. Sophia ultimately arrives on scene and determines that the revolver is a replica.
  • Shout-Out: The title is a reference to 'Twas the Night Before Christmas
