A Very Maru Christmas

This Christmas, Maru gets a visit from a Santa Claus powered by artificial intelligence, which means that it runs hopelessly in circles wasting electricity until a human bails it out. Maru, Hana and Kitten Miri give the jolly old bot a chilly reception, until they see what he brought them.
