The Fonz doesn't want them to know he'll be alone on Christmas and says he can only stay a minute because he's catching a late bus to big gathering out of town. After the Fonz fixes the tree lights he's told he missed the bus. He decides to stay and as they sit around the dinner table they ask him to say the Christmas prayer.
