When a giant, yet talented, tarantula shows up at the door of Santa's workshop; Santa hesitantly accepts the help. Along as he keeps Boris busy, no one will worry that he is a giant spider. Suddenly, there is a crisis. Christmas is in trouble. Spoiled brats from around the world are demanding their presents regardless if they have been good or bad. Santa gets an idea. He sends Boris to remind the children of the true loving meaning of Christmas. Boris's pure and innocent love of Christmas literally scares the spoiled brats straight.
