Never Happy

Elea, a spoiled little girl, says that she's not happy with her latest Christmas presents. If Nicolas doesn't find one that she really likes, she threatens to get her father who manufactures fireplaces, to market a model with no flue. When Nicolas falls out of the sleigh as it flies over New York, he finds himself trapped with Elea in one of these famous blocked chimneys. At the end of the adventure Elea realises that the present she really needs is a friend: Nicolas.
