Remaining to play the actual Reindeer Games, we have Nicole, Frankie, Taylor and Xavier. I wouldn't mind it if Frankie is the first boot of the night. Heh.
We get a Previously On. We're working on getting to the four who will compete tonight.
Tiffany remains the Elf in Charge tonight. Two head-to-head semifinal matchups. One final Naughty or Nice tonight. One of the paintings on the wall is a forgery put there by art thieves. Xavier thinks he has it ... and he does!
Xavier will get to make the bracket for the tournament. Decide with whom he wants to go head-to-head and that person starts 30 seconds after him.
He picks Nicole. Frankie and Taylor will do battle in the next part. The winners of the two will battle for the three.
Semi-Finals -- Nutcrackers are broken, need to be fixed. Must attach all 28 gears to their nutcrackers, first to fix and use, advances. Nicole has the 30 second disadvantage.
NICOLE WINS!
Xavier gets the boot. What? No gift going out?
Semi-Finals Part 2- Taylor versus Frankie. Elves are causing mayhem in the North Pole and must be apprehended. Five guilty elves. Knock down five guilty elves. First one done right wins.
TAYLOR WINS!
It will be Taylor versus Nicole at the end.
All of those previously eliminated come in. It's time for the Reindeer Game Final. They are all shocked that Frankie and Xavier got the boot.
Final Reindeer Game - Acquire magical mistletoe, ancient antlers, sacred snowflake. That will fuel Santa's sleigh and save Christmas.
Taylor gets the mistletoe first. |
Taylor has moved on to snowflakes |
More evenly matched in snowflakes |
NICOLE WINS THE BB REINDEER GAMES!
