In this December 14, 1996 episode of The Ambiguously Gay Duo
the definition of Christmas itself, Santa Claus, is kidnapped by the beetles of
the planet Zolaro, the Commissioner putting it a call to the duo for help,
while apologizing to their wives for the holiday intrusion. When Ace reports
that they are not married, his police chief collects on the bet he has made
about their sexuality, while the Commissioner, still clinging to any
heterosexual possibility claims, “Well, they could have girlfriends.”
The beetles are assured
that Ace and Gary will never be able to pass through the magma waves. Although
one beetle underling cannot help but add, “Unless they intercept one another
first,” the head beetle pondering the fact that he is suggesting that the duo
may be gay. Santa doesn’t have a clue of what they’re talking about, which
leads the head beetle to suggest he needs to get out more often, later
suggesting that since he has all those elves that we ought to know what they’re
talking about.

Meanwhile, as the Duocar
rushes to its destination, Ace tells Gary Christmas without Santa “will leave a
huge a hole. We’ve got to fill that hole.
Escaping the magma waves
through the protection of their car which neutralizes the waves, Ace and Gary
arrive just on time to save Chris Kringel, only be to be attacked on masse by
the beetle army. After the usual open pat on the butt for Gary, the duo shift
into “role mode,” moving into positions that might only be represented
previously in the Kamasutra.

Of course, they win the day,
with Santa declaring them as heroes and declaring they might have any present
they might desire for saving the day.
Without hesitation, both
Ace and Gay quickly move into Santa’s sleigh, reaping, one presumes, they just
awards.
