EPISODE PLOT:\r
Maggie dozes off with a Fluppet Christmas video in hand and dreams that the entire family has become Muppet-style puppets, with Grampa (Dan Castellaneta) and Jasper Beardly (Harry Shearer) heckling them from a box seat in the manner of Statler and Waldorf. As the Simpsons prepare for a trip to Hawaii and ask Moe (Hank Azaria) to house-sit for them, Mr. Burns (Harry Shearer) pays a surprise visit. He says he was visited by three ghosts the night before and wants to be happy and cheerful during the holiday season. He soon learns that Homer (Dan Castellaneta) has feigned a neck injury to get time off work for the trip, so he calls his attack hounds. However, only one arrives (represented by a crude sock puppet), since the show has spent its budget on Katy Perry (appearing as herself in real life), who is Moes girlfriend. This does not startle Mr. Burns, and everyone sings a rendition of 39 Days of Christmas which plays during the credits.
