Deep Dive
What is the mission of the North Polean elves in 'Operation: Cornered Kringle'?
The mission is to rescue Santa Claus, who has been cornered by a helper monkey named Toblerone after going down a chimney to deliver presents.
Why did Santa panic and call for help during the mission?
Santa panicked after being cornered by Toblerone, a helper monkey, who stole his hat and caused chaos. Santa had initially gone silent after eating cookies with raspberry filling, then reported being cornered before the signal went dead.
What equipment do the elves use during the rescue mission?
The elves use tactical gear including peppermint shooters, a candy cane cannon, glitter bombs, and stealth technology to rescue Santa and neutralize Toblerone.
How does Pear Drop handle Toblerone during the confrontation?
Pear Drop uses a glitter bomb to intimidate Toblerone, threatening to detonate it if the monkey doesn’t back down. This tactic buys time for the team to rescue Santa.
What happens to Toblerone after the mission is completed?
Pear Drop detonates a glitter bomb remotely, causing a geyser of glitter and smoke from the chimney, leaving Toblerone shrieking in frustration as the elves fly away.
What is the significance of the raspberry filling in the story?
The raspberry filling is a key clue that leads Tinselbottom to Santa’s location. Santa had eaten cookies with raspberry filling, and the residue on the closet door helps the elves find him.
