  • Balsam Hill projectile vomits Christmas decorations throughout Main Street, characters’ homes, and office locations.
  • Love interest characters meet each other by chance, a small spark flies
  • There is some sort of problem to solve
  • Characters grow closer together and have many awkward almost kiss moments ruined by a child, or some other annoying character.
  • There is some huge misunderstanding because one character doesn’t have the full context of the situation because they overheard a piece of a phone call and takes it in the worst way possible without any followup questions.
  • Character leaves town
  • Character gets the rest of the information
  • Character shows up at the precise moment when things seem the bleakest.
  • They kiss with 2 minutes left in the movie
  • Credits roll
