| abstract | - While Brothers Grimaldius and Lupus attend to their duties at Saint Nicholas's church, the Doctor and Victoria sit in a pub. When a man tells Victoria the story of Saint Nicholas, the Doctor chimes in with his personal experiences with Saint Nicholas, annoying the man. Sailors from Bari attack the monks at the church, stealing the bones of Saint Nicholas. Meanwhile, other sailors enter the pub, and the Doctor, seeming to expect them, asks to see their captain. They are suspicious of him, but after he buys them several drinks, they tell him where their ship is. The Doctor sneaks on board and switches the real bones for plastic ones. The Doctor suggests to Victoria that they take Saint Nicholas's bones to the North Pole to bury them.
