From the case files of Lewis, Louis and Me, "Last Year's Christmas Caper" finds our intrepid detectives on the hunt for the Guatemalan with a little help from Ramone, the ticket-taker down at the Bijou, and a jeweler named Ritchie Cunningham. Their search leads them to the Dinkus Bros. department store and into the lap of Santa Claus himself. "Last Year's Christmas Caper" is an offbeat send-up of the classic hard-boiled detective story, but played largely for laughs.
