Christmas

Ben is a father of three young boys and in need of a timeout. And in need of a woman. So he goes away on a "blind date weekend". Will it turn into a disaster or will a fling turn into something more?

The Prize

Grandma Rose and grandpa Jeff are out for a stroll when the churchbell chimes and shrinks grandma with every strike. She disappears and reappears in an African national park as a lioness, where, with a computer, the animals have summoned her for their annual play staged for the visitors of the park in which she is the protagonist. She lives in a camp and rehearses her part. She meets other animals as well as the park rangers who all live to entertain the tourists. At the end of the season, the computer returns her to grandpa Jeff.

Once Upon A Time In Africa

Stephanie and Belladonna, two outstanding researchers, invent a pheromone trap that potentially kills killer hornets without endangering other species. Now they have to find a way to market it successfully.

When they don't discover groundbreaking inventions they attend speakeasies. They come for the music, for dressing up in 1920s and 1930s attire, and to enjoy the occasional casual sexual encounter. Will tonight's strip poker game also leave them satisfied or will it destroy their careers?

What Happens At The Speakeasy Stays At The Speakeasy
