Na početku priče upoznajemo tri sjevernoameričke vjeverice, Alvina, Simona i Theodorea, koji promatraju kako njihov dom siječe Tvrtka za božićna drvca. Dečki su još unutra kad je drvo poslano u predvorje prestižne tvrtke Jett Records, koju predvodi lukavi i prepredeni šef po imenu Ian Hawk , u središtu Los Angelesa. Ian je bivši cimer s faksa Davea Sevillea, glazbenika i tekstopisca kojeg je napustila sreća, ali koji se nikad nije prestao nadati da će ostvariti uspješnu karijeru svojim neobičnim glazbenim senzibilitetima. Kad Dave ode u Jett Records kako bi prezentirao Ianu novu pjesmu, nepristojno ga izbacuju iz ureda. Uzimjaući košaru kolačića za utjehu, prolazi pokraj božićnog drvca koje postavljaju u predvorju. Vjeverice, koje su nanjušile ukusne kolačiće, uskoče u košaru bez Daveova znanja, koji ih nesvjesno odnosi u svoj stan gdje se vjeverice potajice sasvim ugodno smještaju.
