‘Twas the Date Before Christmas

To keep her family’s beloved “Chamberlain Family Christmas Olympics” from being canceled, Jessie concocts a lie about bringing a date to the festive tradition. In her quest for a suitable companion, she meets Bryan on a dating app, and he surprisingly agrees to join her family for the holiday.

As the pair navigates the quirky traditions of Jessie’s family—such as searching for the perfect Christmas tree star, competing in a gift-wrapping challenge, and engaging in playful snowball fights—they begin to forge a genuine connection. Their playful banter and shared laughter spark real chemistry, making it hard for them to ignore their growing feelings.

However, as the festivities unfold, Jessie’s family starts to pick up on the sparks flying between her and Bryan, raising questions about the authenticity of her relationship. Meanwhile, Bryan grows increasingly suspicious about Jessie’s motivations for inviting him, sensing that there might be more to the story than she’s letting on.

As the holiday continues, Jessie finds herself in a tricky situation, juggling her lies while trying to keep the magic of the season alive. With the pressure mounting, she must come clean about her deception without ruining the newfound bond with Bryan. The challenge becomes not just about saving the family tradition, but also about navigating her feelings and figuring out what truly matters this Christmas.
