Background

Fred Baker owns Fred's Antiques in Normal, Alaska.


During the events of Snowmageddon (2011) played by Michael Hogan

John Miller goes to Fred's store and picks up gifts for needy people to be dropped off by Beth. John asks if the Dragon of the Crown expansion set came in for Rudy Miller, but Fred tells him it is still on backorder. Later, the clock in the center of downtown starts to move and Fred tells John it shouldn't move due to him removing all of its parts to fix it. Ice shrapnel starts to hit downtown Normal, killing a resident and a power line falls on the school bus, trapping Larry and Norm inside the bus. The ice shrapnel stop and Tully and Fred see Larry and Norm trapped in the bus. Tully uses the radio to try and communicate with other towns, but can't reach anyone and tells Fred. Rudy shows up at Fred's store, shows him the snow globe and tells him how everything that happens in the snow globe happens in Normal, Alaska. Fred doesn't believe Rudy until he notices the time on the town clock in the snow globe matches the one in town. Rudy blames the snow globe curse on himself, but Fred tells him it isn't his fault. As Larry is yelling that everyone in town needs to leave to Tully, John and Beth Miller arrive in town. Tully tells them Rudy is with Fred and they go over and Beth hugs Rudy. John tells the townspeople that the snow globe is responsible for what is happening in town. Larry doesn't believe it and tries to destroy the snow globe, but it remains undamaged. Rudy suggests they throw the snow globe into the volcano like in the Dragon of the Crown game. John tells Larry, Mt. Thoburg is becoming active again and John decides to try and throw the snow globe into Mt. Thoburg, while Larry and the rest of the residents flee. The remaining members of town except Fred start to drive out of town, but are forced to turn back after the clock strikes 12 again and fire erupts from fissures in the ground. Eventually Mo runs into town with John not far behind. John hugs his family and Fred congratulates him with Tully. Later, as Fred is cleaning up he comes across another snow globe in his store's Christmas tree and throws it into the wall, shattering it
