The second part of the Hawaii Five 0 doubleheader seems to be a little lighter in spirit as the team is celebrating Christmas. The main part of the story revolves around Danny telling Charlie a Christmas story about some Santas that are not exactly what kids are used to. Hope it does not give him nightmares going forward, but we digress. Back to the story, the bad santas will be flashed back to how the team is able to apprehend them and a whole lot in between. There will also be a poignant part of the episode that includes real life military veterans that help with the case.
