Fridge Logic

• Kris and Jessica's wedding consisted of them putting their wedding gifts under a pine tree and looking up at the stars, while the Winter Warlock prays for a little magic to make the trees glow. The narrator even notes that "Since no church would have them, they stood before the Lord in a grove of pine trees." So technically...they're not legally married?!
  • It's a common-law marriage. Given that they have considered and comported themselves as married for how many centuries now, they are legally married. Unless they were Catholic and the marriage happened after 1215...
  • Add to that, their wedding night was Christmas Eve. Which means that Kris leaves Jessica alone on their anniversary every year!
• Topper the penguin. Even setting aside the fact that he's somehow wandered near the North Pole while searching for the South, why is he the only animal in the show that wears a scarf?
• If the Kringles were the toymakers to the King of whatever country this is (I'm assuming ancient Germany), how does a Burgermeister, a small-time local lord, able to go over his head in declaring the Kringles enemies of the state? This bugged me even as a little kid. King > Mayor.
  • And why is that one guy in Sombertown a dead ringer for the old king? Maybe the line was deposed by the Meisterburgers...
• Kris is trapped in a dungeon. Kris needs to escape the dungeon. The solution? Feed reindeer corn that makes them fly! How does a flying reindeer help him out of a dungeon?!
  • There is apparently a missing sequence, scripted but not filmed, where Kris and the others manage to get out of their cells and into the yard in the center of the prison -- into which the reindeer then fly.
