Annoyed that he can't fool one little girl, Briefcase bets a friend he can charm Lisbeth into believing he really is the Tooth Fairy. But in getting to know her, he's shocked to find out Lisbeth doesn't believe in God, or anything remotely "magical" like the Tooth Fairy or Santa Claus! Now, Briefcase must find a way to make the magic real and come through for a little girl whose fragile faith rests in his hands.
