Synopsis
Scott Calvin (Tim Allen) has been Santa Claus for the past eight years and his loyal elves consider him the best Santa ever. But Scott's got problems. His son Charlie (Eric Lloyd) has landed on this year's 'naughty' list and Santa himself is mysteriously 'de-santafying'. To top it all off, if Scott doesn't get married by Christmas Eve, he'll stop being Santa forever! (It's right in his contract - The 'Mrs Clause').
Desperate both to find a wife and help his son, Scott heads back home, leaving a substitute Claus to watch over things at the Pole. But when the substitute institutes some strange redefinitions of naughty and nice - putting Christmas at risk - it's up to Scott to return with a new bag of magic to try to save Christmas.
