It's Christmas time, and as Rex says, ""Ho, ho, friggin' ho!"" The gang creates a choir for the Christmas show, but no one has the guts to tell solo volcalist Jess that she can't sing. Rex is wrangled into playing Santa. Meanwhile, Lenora's sister comes to visit and the two click like never before -- but Loretta has an ulterior motive -- she wants to make their mother move out of the nursing home and in with Lenora. Both Rex and Lenora are bummed out by the holidays, so they find solace in each others arms. . .
