Ben is in the newspapers for witnessing a crime. Dr. Katz and Laura both remark that it's odd that he used his real name instead of choosing to remain anonymous. Ben thinks he's on the road to stardom because of this one-time incident, and wants to go to a school to tell his story. However, in the end, it's revealed that he didn't actually see a crime and lied to the reporter: "It was in the heat of the moment and I had to say something." Dr. Katz grounds Ben.

Laura calls Dr. Katz's apartment to say she won't be into work, using the lame excuses that she needs to get her watch fixed and do holiday shopping. Ben wonders if she's unhappy at the office and that's why she's calling in sick; Dr. Katz agrees and upgrades her position from "receptionist" to "administrative assistant". Since that doesn't seem to do anything for her, Katz throws an office Christmas party, though because of the size of his business, it will only be the two of them. When Laura arrives at the party, she almost immediately announces she has to go (especially when Katz says that Ben might be stopping by later), but thanks Dr. Katz for going through the trouble of having a party for her. Ben and Katz end the episode singing a round of "Jingle Bells".
