The Waltons season 2 episode 19, titled "The Gift", follows the Walton family as they prepare for Christmas. With the holiday season just around the corner, the family is busy with preparations, including decorating their home, baking cookies, and selecting gifts for each other.

As the family continues to prepare for the holiday, they learn that an elderly woman in their community, Miss Fanny Tatum, is alone and in need of assistance. Miss Tatum is a friend of the family and has been a regular visitor to the Walton's home for years. When the family hears of her plight, they immediately offer their help.

John Walton decides to take charge of the situation and offers to take Miss Tatum in for the holiday. He and his wife Molly attempt to make her feel comfortable and welcome in their home, but Miss Tatum has always been an independent woman and has trouble adjusting to her new surroundings.

Despite their best efforts, Miss Tatum continues to feel out of place in the Walton household. She misses her old life and longs to return to her own home. John and Molly are understanding of her feelings and work hard to make her feel more comfortable.

As Christmas morning approaches, the family gathers around the tree to exchange gifts. The children are excited to see what they have received, and the adults share in their joy. Miss Tatum watches from the sidelines, feeling like an outsider and not wanting to intrude on the family's special moment.

However, the Waltons have a surprise for Miss Tatum. They have invited her nieces and nephews to join them for Christmas dinner. Miss Tatum is overwhelmed with emotion as she is reunited with her family, who she thought had forgotten about her. She realizes that she already had the greatest gift of all, her family's love, and is grateful for her time with the Waltons.

As the episode comes to a close, Miss Tatum prepares to return to her own home, but not before leaving the Waltons with a reminder of their kindness. She presents them with a handcrafted quilt, a symbol of her appreciation for their gift of hospitality. The family is touched by her gesture, and it serves as a reminder of the importance of kindness and generosity during the holiday season.

Overall, "The Gift" is a heartwarming episode that showcases the true spirit of Christmas. It emphasizes the importance of family, love, and generosity, and reminds viewers of the joy of giving. The episode is a perfect example of the wholesome and heartwarming content that has made The Waltons a beloved classic.
