Merry Christmas

Ben, Grandpa Max, and Gwen come upon a bizarre Christmas village run by a Christmas-obsessed man who thinks Grandpa Max is Santa Claus and proceeds to trap him. As Ben and Gwen explore, they learn about a strange curse on the village from one of its few unloyal elves, who happens to be the son of the Christmas-obsessed man named Mr. Jenkie. The village was frozen at Christmas, in the 1930s meaning time does not move there.

All the villagers were turned into elves by a mysterious machine, so Ben turns into Grey Matter and sneaks into the machine and deactivates it. Mr. Jenkie tells them that happines from perfect gifts is the only solution to end the "village curse". Max explains that the spirit of Christmas is not about giving the perfect toys but it is about the spirit of giving. When Ben (as Stinkfly) delivers all the gifts that had been made, the "village curse" was lifted and the Tennysons somehow teleported back to the right time. Mr. Jenkie and his son are gone but a statue of them remain, which according to a villager was created in 1932.
