Somewhere between L.A. and N.Y. Jake found the meaning of Christmas.

A college student experiences difficulty in getting home for Christmas after being hazed by his friends. While struggling to get home in time for Christmas, he learns quite a bit about himself and the true meaning of the holiday.

Fun Fact: Near the beginning, when Jake is at the door to Allie's (Jessica Biel's) dorm room, we see that her roommate is on the basketball team. On 7th Heaven, Jessica Biel's character was on the Varsity Basketball Team for her high school all four years.
