 Ruckus eventually becomes the new Santa, causing Jazmine to lose faith in the idea of Santa Claus until Ruckus claims that the real Santa had secretly chosen him to fill in after seeing how dangerous the mall could be.Jazmine accepts this story and attends Huey's play with Riley and Granddad, applauding enthusiastically as they sleep through it.Curt Fields of "The Washington Post" deemed the episode "excellent," writing, "With a knowing spin on "A Charlie Brown Christmas", the story is a laugh-out-loud take on the holiday, consumerism and earnestly liberal white folks."
