It's the holiday season and Abed joins his pals in the cafeteria to discuss everyone's vacation plans. Annie's going to cram for a relaxation class she's taking the following semester. Troy's looking forward to playing video games that allow him to "fake murder" people. Abed reminds everyone that this must be an important Christmas; why else would he and his friends be stop-motion animated? In order to take advantage of his new animated self, Abed bursts into a joyful song and dance. That is, until security guards taser him! Abed's "delusions" land him in Professor Duncan's office, where Abed insists that they're all animated. Abed realizes he must discover the meaning of Christmas in order to explain his strange transformation.
