is an NBC TV movie based on the CBS sitcom Father Knows Best, which reunites its cast. It was the second and last of the show's two 1977 reunion movies (after Father Knows Best Reunion earlier that year), premiering on December 18th.
Jim arrives home to find Margaret in the attic sorting through the Christmas decorations. They reminisce about past holidays, including the one with the quarrel between Kathy and Neva that nearly ruined Christmas. Their realtor friend, Louise, stops by to see if they've ever considered selling the house. Jim tells her they aren't interested but will let her know if they change their minds.
Although they haven't heard from the children, Jim and Margaret assume they will be home for Christmas. Their hopes are dashed by a series of phone calls. Bud is searching for a new place to move his business and his wife, Jeanne, hasn't heard from him in over a week. Betty and her airline pilot fiance, Frank, are taking the girls to London for Christmas. Kathy and her doctor boyfriend, Jason, are going skiing.
While shopping for gifts, Margaret becomes depressed at the sight of children sitting on Santa's knee in the store. She speaks wistfully of wanting to take her grandchildren to see him. The dollhouse they considered buying for her daughters, Ellen and Jenny, has been sold. At that point, Margaret decides they should sell their house. She finally accepts that the children have their own lives now.
Louise warns them that the house will sell quickly and asks about their future plans. They don't have any, although Jim suggests they get an RV and travel around the country. He correctly predicts that once the house is on the market, the children will decide to come home after all.
Frank calls with a change in plan. He wants to leave Ellen and Jenny with Jim and Margaret for a few days. Betty is in Milwaukee on business. She and Frank will meet in Chicago on Christmas Eve and travel to Springfield. Then Bud, Jeanne, and their son, Robbie, call to say they are on their way. Betty unexpectedly arrives but without Frank, who had to fly to Rome but will still be there on Christmas Eve as planned. Kathy and Jason cancel their ski trip after he breaks his ankle.
Jim and Margaret announce that they are selling the house. Betty thinks it's a good idea but Bud and Kathy aren't happy about it. Bud confides in Jim that he and Jeanne are still having marital problems. He doesn't know what would make her happy. Jim suggests that he ask her.
