Plot
Wayne and Lanny, now partners, are called by Magee to meet with a secret contact Mrs. Claus, who sends them on a new mission to retrieve a box from Santa's secret workshop. Later they sneak into Santa's office while he is asleep, using their high tech equipment from the previous film. Lanny's expertise at dressing the tree enables them to enter the hidden workshop where they recover the box and escape just in time. Mrs. Claus reveals the contents of the box to be the last part of the first toy that Santa ever made, and gives the complete toy (a wooden duck on wheels) back to him as his Christmas Present.
