This short film finds Anna Kendrick arriving at her NYC brownstone stoop brimming with the spoils of a successful day of holiday shopping only to realize that she forgot her apartment keys. When she finally reaches her limit on modeling new fashions for her pup, texting and loudly singing holiday jingles, she fashions an extended hook with her newly purchased goods and craftily makes her way up the fire escape ladder, proudly letting her dog in through the front door.
