Plot: Paul worked at a prep school called Deerfield Academy and wasn't well-liked by the students. Angus, a 15-year-old troublemaker who was often on the verge of expulsion, needed to be watched over by Paul during the 1970 Christmas holiday since he had no family and nowhere else to go. Head chef Mary, whose own son recently vanished in Vietnam, is left behind with Paul and Angus. For two winter weeks in New England, these three very different losers become a bizarre Christmas family, sharing humorous escapades and coming to the realization that none of them are grateful for their history.

Plot: In an attempt to use blackmail to get Israel to free the organization's imprisoned members, the Palestinian extreme terrorist group "Black September" stormed into the Olympic Village during the 20th Olympic Games in 1972, which were hosted in the Federal Republic of Germany. The group abducted 11 Israeli athletes. When German authorities raided the terror group's hideout in an attempt to save lives with force, all 11 Israeli athletes perished. The Israeli Mossad's senior brass promptly prepared a crew of operatives to begin a century-long, brutal campaign of retaliation against the Palestinian organization "Black September" and its associates following the tragedy.
