BRAN’S SHE’S MAKING A LIST SYNOPSIS
The Naughty or Nice list has been around since the beginning of time. Back in the day, elves would go down to Earth to keep an eye on every kid. The internet has made things somewhat easier, but they still need help — which is where the Naughty & Nice Inspectors come in. They pop in, observe kids, and make the final ruling.
That’s where we meet Isabel Haynes — a woman who was recruited by the company as a kid herself. Isabel loves to break the fourth wall, chat with us, and explain her job, and honestly? I love it. While inspecting one kid, she bumps into a hunk named Jason. I’m sure that means nothing, right?
Back at the office, her boss Rudolph worries she’s spending too much time on the road. But it’s time for her next assignment: making a final ruling on a girl named Charlie. Isabel follows her home, where Charlie’s dad assumes she’s from the power company coming to help him with his Christmas lights. And the dad in question? Jason. He wastes NO time asking her on a date.
They go out, but it’s cut short when Charlie’s sitter calls to say she’s “sick.” Isabel knows immediately she’s faking. Naughty, naughty.
The next day, Charlie catches Isabel watching them. Isabel’s like, “Oh yeah, I watch people sometimes. No big deal.” She spends the day with Charlie and Jason and realizes Charlie’s behavior is way more complicated than a simple Naughty or Nice label. She even tells Charlie who she really is — but Charlie doesn’t buy it. After all, Santa brings her presents regardless, even the year she was naughty all the time.
Jason wants to talk to Isabel about what’s going on, but she gets called into the office. She ends up quitting because she doesn’t believe in the system anymore. Naughty and Nice isn’t as black and white as HQ wants it to be.
Meanwhile, Jason and Charlie talk. Charlie tells him about what Isabel said — including how last year she noticed Santa’s handwriting looked… different. Suspicious.
Charlie requests that Isabel attend the grand opening of Jason’s new pizza place so they can talk things out. Isabel shows up, tells Jason she quit, and together they decide to take their concerns directly to Santa. She makes her case to get rid of the Naughty List… and surprisingly, Santa agrees. Super easy.
Isabel takes a new job working for Santa but gets to work remotely so she can stay with Jason and Charlie. They celebrate by spending Christmas morning together and kissinggggg.
