It's the day before Christmas Eve and Morris was sure he was going to be spending it alone. Again. Cue a little girl enlisting him to help find her mom. Along the way, Morris falls victim to the Christmas Effect.

So what do you do when a deliciously handsome guy breaks into your apartment on Christmas Eve wearing a Santa hat? Some might call the police or maybe scream.

So, if you ever find yourself in Evangeline's spot, just call the police.
