Synopsis[]
To be added
Plot[]
Steve Urkel is all alone for Christmas, his family having left him behind and the Winslows shutting him out after he breaks Laura's old-fashioned Christmas ornament. The nerd has also promised Richie that Santa will deliver him the season's hottest toy, Freddie Teddy, a story-telling teddy bear that Carl seems to have a little trouble securing. Eventually, Laura apologizes to Steve after she finds him feeling sad and alone in his basement, on Christmas Eve. She also invites him to spend Christmas with her and her family, and Steve accepts. Soon the Winslows learn there's nothing wrong with Steve still believing in Santa, especially when they discover his letter (with which he asked Santa to let him spend Christmas with the Winslows) and Richie is happy with his present.

- Richie: I'm gonna ask Santa for a Freddy-Teddy.
- Urkel: Well, were you a good boy this year?
- Richie: Well, I had a pretty good August.
- Eddie: Steve, you shouldn't have told Richie that Santa was going to bring him a Freddy Teddy.
- Urkel: Well, why the Sam Hill not?
- Laura: Because Aunt Rachel's having a hard time finding one.

- Laura: Steve, you broke my favorite ornament.
- Urkel: Oh, gee, Laura. I'll buy you another one.

- Urkel: Oh, well, gee, I'm sorry.
- Laura: You're always sorry. Look, I don't want you over here on Christmas morning. In fact, I don't want you over here ever again.
- Urkel: Oh. Then that will be my Christmas present to you. Merry Christmas, Laura.
