Episode 2

The Pilot (not the Pilot)

Episode 3

A Trial to Watch

90 Degrees

Episode 5

Harper's Locket

Episode 6

The Spirit of Christmas

Santa’s come to town to solve a little girl’s holiday woes, but there’s no Xmas cheer as he drinks too much sherry, an elf is trapped in the set, and a magical snowman is eaten alive.
