It's the holidays, and a desperate developer, Broadbent, is determined to unload his glitch-ridden 'House of the Future' on an unsuspecting couple. He has ‘decked the halls’ with every conceivable pitch. His sales team, Casey and Ben, pose as a husband and wife renting the house, while the handyman, Ed Cott -is forced to don a dress and become ’Nanny Turcotte’ in order to help save the sale. When a winter storm strands Mr. Brooks, Casey’s future father-in-law, the hired chef Sue, scrambles to switch identities so fast you’ll be guessing what she’ll cook up next. Can the holiday spirit rescue this disaster of a sale as Mr. Brooks becomes infatuated with the ‘Nanny’ and the gadgets malfunction faster than holiday shoppers can grab a deal? A hilarious festive blend of mistaken identities, tech-tastrophy antics and non-stop action will have everyone Ho-Ho-Ho’ing to the very end!
