Ah, Boxing Day, when we eat Brie and crackers and leftover Christmas chocolate and gaze into the middle distance a lot.

A medieval Christmas hedgehog for your Christmas Eve 🎄🦔 This little guy dates from around 1302 and can be found in Verdun, Bibliothèque Municipale MS 107, fol. 8

Heidi and David kiss. David's dad kisses the historical society secretary, whom I think I forgot to mention but she makes good coffee. The kids beam. The deputy mayor brings by a Christmas ornament. Everyone is happy. The microfiche is still broken, though. THE END.

We get a flashback to David's dad and his father playing with a sleigh in 1955, which is unintentionally funny because they're dressed like they're in the 1920s. Hallmark is just as bad as math as I am.

They find a painting that's fallen off the wall with a cracker joke written on the back and a toy reindeer hidden behind it and a phonograph with a Christmas music collection. WILL THE MYSTERIES OF MISTLETOE LANE NEVER CEASE?!
