12-year-old Rowena Clybourne (Scarlett Estevez) has an absolute nightmare Christmas day, when everything goes wrong that can possibly go wrong.
So, at the end of the day, she sits on the front step bemoaning her
life to a passing guy in a Santa suit (Gary Anthony Williams) and wishes for
another Christmas Day, which is unexpectedly granted and as a result he has to
relive Christmas Day over and over again.
She must suffer her insufferable prankster half-brother Louie (James
McCracken) who also steals all the attention.
Then there is her perfect sister Gabby (Ashlyn Jade Lopez), her soon
to be stepmother Diane (Beth Lacke), her grandfather (Tony Amendola) and
flatulent grandmother (Priscilla Lopez).
Rowena also has to repeatedly incur the wrath of her parents (Alexis
Carra and Daniel Sunjata) as she tries to figure out what she has to do to
bring Christmas Day to an end.
