It's Christmastime, and Mortimer Mouse, unhappy in his cramped, cold hole, goes in search of a new home.

He spies a nativity scene that looks just right for him, so he moves the statues out and settles himself into the manger!

But when he hears the Christmas story being told and realises that the statues are of Mary, Joseph and Jesus, he understands that the creche is meant for them and returns everything to its rightful place.

Then, suddenly, a Christmas miracle occurs and Mortimer discovers a new home, at last!
