Opening quote: "I have but to swallow this, and be for the rest of my days persecuted by a legion of goblins, all of my own creation. Humbug, I'll tell you; humbug!"
In a Christmas party, the couple hosting the party receive an enormous gift at their door and they put it on their tree. Later that night, three goblin-like Wesen get out of the present and begin to wreak havoc in the house and severely attack the husband before escaping.
Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell) invites Rosalee (Bree Turner) to their delayed honeymoon plan, which she accepts. Nick (David Giuntoli), Hank (Russell Hornsby) and Wu (Reggie Lee) investigate the home invasion and question the wife Emma (Charissa J. Adams). Nick and Hank find that the gift was opened from inside and there's fruitcake surrounding the gift. Meanwhile, Trubel (Jacqueline Toboni) is leaving the house when Josh (Lucas Near-Verbrugghe) asks to go, since he wants to prove his valor. They watch over Shaw (Donald MacEllis), who is telling everyone of Trubel's abilities. She sneaks outside and is found by a Schakal, but is knocked out by Josh. Trubel discovers the mask that belongs to the Secundum Naturae Ordinem Wesen and they go.
Trubel reports this to Nick, who tells her to go with Bud (Danny Bruno) to get names. Based on the location of three crimes related to the home invasion, Nick and Hank discover that a church is in the middle of the invasions. Renard (Sasha Roiz) talks with Nick, discussing that Elizabeth left and Wu suspecting the Wesen issues. Nick and Hank are then called to a house where the goblins are causing chaos. Two of them flee while another attacks Nick until Hank knocks him out. Not sure if it's a Wesen, they decide to give it to Monroe and Rosalee to know more about it. They go to the trailer and find that they're dealing with Kallikantzaroi, a condition that affects Indole Gentile children and makes them commit acts without them knowing. They also find that if they eat fruitcake, they would be cured of the condition.
