6.8/10. One of those very scattershot bits of the show, where it's really more about the jokes than anything involving the story. (As the dream-within-a-dream-within-a-dream structure suggests.) But the jokes are good! Dr. Venture reliving a jumbled up version of *A Christmas Carol* is amusing in a ridiculous sort of way, and the ensuing X-mas party works well too. The boys accidentally summoning a Krampus who Dr. Venture treats with weary annoyance before being attacked by it is amusing enough, and The Monarch's schemes and minor domestic strife brought some laughs too. Heck, even just the visual gags like the Christmasy redone intro or the tinsel strung around the Monarch's cocoon were worth a chuckle. Pretty inessential, but still disposably fun.
