Quick recap

It's Christmas, and Manny pulls the Christmas Rock out of storage, a family heirloom that helps Santa find them. Sid knocks into it and breaks it. Furious, Manny puts Sid on the Naughty List and says Santa isn't real. Upset, Peaches sets off for the North Pole with Sid, Crash and Eddie to prove Santa exists and get Sid off the list. On the way they meet a reindeer named Prancer. Manny, Ellie and Diego follow. An avalanche wrecks Santa's workshop, Manny finally believes, and everyone fixes the sleigh. The Naughty List turns into the Nice List.
