"Mary Tyler Moore Show," 1970
As the episode begins, Mary is talking excitedly on the phone at her office desk -- lavishly decorated for the holidays -- planning her Christmas visit with her mother. Right afterward, however, boss Lou Grant informs her that she'll have to work on Christmas Day.
Later still, another colleague manipulates Mary into working for him on Christmas Eve too. Virtually alone in the building that night, Mary is frightened when someone calls and hangs up without speaking. She hears a bang and footsteps down the hall. She quickly calls friend Rhoda to say a murderer is approaching. Then she arms herself with a Santa figurine and prepares to throw it as the door bursts open to reveal: Lou and colleagues Murray and Ted, arriving to whisk her off to a holiday celebration.
