Brooke gets dumped just before Christmas and enlists the help of an actor, Joel to play the role of her boyfriend for the holidays. Brooke had described her ex as "Mr. Christmas" to her family. When she finds out that Joel is Jewish, she gets anxious about keeping up with the deceptive plan.
When her family figures out that he is Jewish, they get more curious about his background and want to know more about him. Surprisingly, they happily incorporate his Hanukkah traditions into their plans. When Christmas is celebrated alongside Hanukkah, they learn so much about each other's holiday.
