Line 7:
The story follows the idea that even when no people are around, the toys still play in the playroom. But since a toy will be frozen forever if a person catches it out of position, they have to be very careful. It's Christmas Eve, and Rugby the Tiger remembers how he was the Christmas Toy last year, and thinks he's going to be unwrapped again. It's up to Apple the Doll, whom Rugby supplanted as favorite toy, to tell him the truth. But Rugby won't believe her, and tries to get into the Christmas package and lets Meteora, Queen of the Asteroids loose. She doesn't know she's a toy, and thinks she's landed among aliens. It's up to the other toys to get Rugby out of the box and Meteora back in it before they're all found and frozen forever.

Line 17:
* [[Fantastic Racism]]: All of the other toys look down on Mew - often reminding him that he's "just a cat toy." It doesn't help that toys hate the scent of catnip.
* [[Green-Eyed Monster]]: All the toys are afraid that the shiny new Christmas toys will replace them in the hearts of their human owners.
* [["Happy Holidays" Dress]]: The Barbie wears a grand dress until she decides to get changed for the rescue mission. Alas, by the time she's dressed for action, it's Christmas morning and the lost toys are safely home.
* [[It's All About Me]]: Rugby
* [[Jive Turkey]]: The taxi toy Cruiser.
