THE MISSION SYNOPSIS
Santa and Silicon Valley Tech CEO's have a lot in common. They both operate under extreme pressure and tight deadlines, and most importantly - they are hard-core "metrics" and "data" people. But when an unfortunate accident destroys the North Pole Workshop just 3 days before Christmas Eve, Santa faces disaster: his unionized elves stage a walkout in protest; there aren’t enough toys completed to deliver, no one to make them, and he’s on the clock.
is the supreme, secretive governing body of seasonal belief and commerce. They are the shadow syndicate that manages the single most volatile commodity on Earth: global faith. They do not govern territories; they govern attention and expectation. This group consists of the executive heads of the world's most lucrative annual events—including Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy—along with highly specialized, discreet figures like the Sandman, Cupid, and Father Time. Their true purpose is two-fold: market stabilization and the prevention of a "Belief Bubble" collapse. They enforce strict operational quotas on everything from candy production to sentiment tracking to ensure no one holiday steals too much market share, which would ultimately lead to chaos.Meanwhile, tech tycoon Sonny Yu is aiming to “disrupt” Christmas and put Santa out of business at the same time with his “Click-Mas” delivery drones. To Sonny, it’s all about the clicks, hashtags, and having “Click-mas” every day of the year. Santa decides the only way Christmas is going to be saved this year is if he breaks into Sonny’s warehouses and steals the toys he needs to complete his delivery list.
Adding pressure to this entire scenario, Space Force Colonel Ann DeLuca is determined to find out if Santa is real. The blip they called “Winter Ghost” is nowhere to be found on any radar. To save the holiday, St. Nick must assemble a Black-Ops squad of rogue elves and one wild reindeer from the “Permanently Naughty List.”
