In the midst of working on a big Christmas show, the Muppets are gladly told by new bank owner Rachel Bitterman that they are running out of time to pay the theater mortgage. Wanting the theater property for herself, she goes as far as to manipulate Pepe and secretly change the contract deadline. Kermit rallies the Muppets into saving their theater and with their show a smashing success, everything seems like it's going to work out. Unfortunately, Fozzie experiences mishaps while he attempts to deposit the money missing the deadline. Kermit blames himself for everything going wrong and hopelessly heads off into the cold. A well-meaning angel named Daniel intervenes ending up showing him how bad the world would be without him. It is not a pretty sight, but will it be enough to convince Kermit to not give up hope?moreless
