Frosty Returns

In the town of Beansboro, the local elementary school is canceled for the day due to a seven-inch snowfall. While the adults incessantly complain about the problems they have to deal with due to the snow and ice, the children enjoy the opportunity to play outside in the snow.

Meanwhile, a young aspiring magician named Holly DeCarlo practices a magic act with her tone-deaf nerd friend named Charles, who has a knack for climatology. However, the wind blows Holly's hat off her head and onto a snowman who comes to life as Frosty, thus revealing that Holly's hat was "that old silk hat" featured in the original song and previous adaptations.

A new product appears in Beansboro: an aerosol spray called "Summer Wheeze" that causes snow to instantly disappear, posing a fatal threat to Frosty. Summer Wheeze's inventor, Mr. Twitchell, hopes to use the product to win over the people of Beansboro and be crowned King of the Beansboro Winter Carnival, apparently believing that the title will give him actual dominion over them. At a presentation before the town council, a trustee voices concern about the environmental impact of the untested product; Twitchell orders his pet cat, Bones, to open a trapdoor beneath her seat.
