Summary
It's Christmas time, so Ritsu Tainaka decides to hold a party at Yui Hirasawa's house.
Plot
The episode starts with a flashback of a past Christmas. Ui and Yui are preparing a Christmas tree as young children. Yui expresses her worries about not getting presents this year as she believes her behavior was poor over the past year, to which Ui answered that she should not worry since Santa Claus will definitely make her a present. Yui asked Ui about her wishes. Ui thinks about it and then wishes for a "White Christmas" before explaining the concept to Yui. The next morning, Yui wakes Ui up and tells her to go outside. There, Yui proudly presents to her the bush outside their home, covered with a fresh coat of snow. On closer inspection however, the snow turns out to be pillow filling, leading to Yui getting scolded harshly later. Ui recalls the memory fondly as another Christmas approaches.
The next day, as the two head for school, Yui realizes that Ui's scarf is missing while Ui notices that Yui lost one of her gloves. The two improvise by sharing the clothes the other is missing with the other.
At school, Ritsu decides to hold a Christmas party at Tsumugi's house without prior notice. Her plan is instantly rejected when Tsumugi informs everyone that one has to register a visit to her estate at least a month in advance around Christmas time. Since Ritsu's and Mio's places are also out of the question due to each accusing the other of having a disheveled living space, Yui's home is settled on. The group also decides to do a present exchange. Outside school, they invite Nodoka to come along too.
Back home, Yui asks Ui for help and also facetiously tells her that everybody has to put on a short performance. Ui takes this seriously and begins to wonder what she should do for the party.
Later, Yui and Nodoka both go shopping for presents they could use for the exchange together. Mio and Ritsu also go shopping at the same time, though Ritsu spends more time terrifying Mio with various scary gift items than she does shopping. As both parties happen to meet up, they witness Tsumugi winning the first price in a raffle drawing, a trip to Hawaii. Everybody is then shocked when Mugi refuses the price and exchanges it for a board game they could play together at the party.
Finally, Christmas arrives and Ui and Yui are busy preparing the home for the guests, or rather Ui is busy making food and preventing Yui from eating said food. After Ritsu, Mio and Tsumugi arrive, everybody once again ponders the differences between Yui and Ui's personalities when they realize Ui has been doing all the work getting the party ready.
Starting with a toast, everybody is startled by Sawako Yamanaka, who suddenly appears out of nowhere. After Yui explains that they did not invite her because they thought she might be busy with her boyfriend, Sawako's mood turns dour. The teacher proceeds to continue ruining the atmosphere like undressing Mio in front of Nodoka right as she arrives.
With everyone present, the girls begin the present exchange over Sawako's depressing rendition of Jingle Bells, making everyone uneasy about the whole situation. As Sawako opens Ritsu's present, she's struck in the face by the Jack-in-the-box inside, finally causing her to have a mental breakdown. Moving right along, the rest of the girls open their presents. Yui and Ui are the last to open theirs, and inside is a new scarf and pair of gloves each girl was respectively missing.
After the present exchange, the group actually decides to do short performances. Ui goes first, putting on a ventriloquist act. Sawako follows this up by slapping her hand on her stomach, leaving a red mark behind, causing everyone to lament the death of the sweet teacher they thought Sawako was.
As they see everyone off, Yui asks Ui to share a bed with her tonight. Ui happily agrees but regrets it later as Yui takes the whole blanket for herself while sleeping.
After New Year's Eve, Yui, Ritsu, Tsumugi and Mio meet at a local shrine. As they pray for the success of the Light Music Club, Yui gets hit by Ritsu when she wishes to eat more of Tsumugi's sweets instead of wishing to get better at guitar.
