    When Charley Eaton’s father is unexpectedly killed in an accident, his spirit visits him in a dream and asks Charley to finish the invention he knows will change the world. The young boy works tirelessly to bring his father home for Christmas, and to everyone’s surprise, his new improved mechanical father bears a vibrating gift, which pleases his wife more than he ever could in life.
