The Story

Pete is at Curly Carter's Christmas party and is enjoying himself until Curly's ugly sister appears wanting to give him a kiss, as Pete is under the mistletoe. Pete asks his book to save him and a fish pops out. When Curly's sister sees she's kissed a fish she threatens to throw Jelly down Pete's neck.

Pete decides it's time to go, but as he opens to door it gets flung back into him with someone else arriving. He sees Curly's sister coming towards him, and asks for a kiss under the mistletoe but she's carrying the jelly and not paying attention. They meet and jelly goes all over them both.

Curly's sister blames Pete and he uses his book to make a hasty exit, Santa and his sleigh pops out and they take off into the sky.
