Synopsis[]
It's Christmas time and Dennis is going around the house looking for his presents. Henry tells Alice that the package from Grandpa with Dennis' sled arrived. Henry is going to hide some more presents in the trunk in the attic. When he gets there, he finds Dennis and Tommy trying to unlock the trunk. Henry asks Mr. Wilson if he could hide the presents in one of his closets. Dennis keeps trying to find where the presents are hidden. Dennis got Henry an alarm clock as a present. He sets it for later in the day. He hopes his mother will put it with the other presents and when it goes off, Dennis will know where they're hidden. It's four o'clock and Dennis doesn't hear the alarm. The clock alarm goes off in George's closet and he thinks it's the doorbell. George and Martha come over to the Mitchell house to help them decorate their tree. Everyone sings Silent Night and Dennis finishes the song himself. Dennis figures it out where the gifts are when he goes over to the Wilson's house and opens the closet door.
