Fred Claus

Fred Claus was a child who suffered from the saintliness of his older brother Nick. Jump ahead. Fred, a Chicago-based fast-talking and genial man looking to start an off-track betting shop with $50,000 is self-centered. He calls Nick at North Pole to ask for a loan after a scam goes wrong. Nick is willing to lend the money if Fred helps with the Christmas rush. Fred moves north after his girlfriend abandons him. Santa is facing an audit by an efficiency expert. It’s unpleasant. Fred is responsible for reviewing charts to determine which people are naughty or nice. Can there be any fraternal feelings left? If so, which can one learn from the other and how about Santa being fired? —
