Summer and Phyllis are at CL’s, talking about Daniel, when he calls to invite them over. They waste no time leaving.
Daniel is sweating, huffing and puffing by the time he manages to haul a Christmas tree into the apartment. Let’s do it for Mom, he tells a forlorn Lucy.
Sharon tells Nick and Mike that she and Heather were arguing. She kept badgering me – telling me I was out of my mind – part of me believed her – so I pushed her. I felt a hand touch me – someone else was there! Sharon realizes.
Returning to the motel, Jordan yanks off her wig, pours a drink and flashes back to Ian (posing as a Priest) visiting her in prison. He wonders what she’d do if she had a second chance. She won’t repent – or make amends to the Newmans.
At Society, Mariah’s relieved that her Mom didn’t run Phyllis off the road – she can’t wait to hear what Sharon remembers today. Ian watches her and Tessa through the window.
Still panting, Daniel tries to talk Lucy into helping him decorate the tree. It feels wrong having fun without Mom, the teen pouts. Daniel will start – Lucy’s put in charge of music and snacks.
Jordan continues to drink ‘n think – flashing back to Ian listening to her whine about being put in a dungeon; I hurt, I bleed. If she could go back to GC, she’d want revenge. Ian didn’t get rid of his hatred – he embraced it.
Sharon was on the sofa – some else was there (and killed Heather) Nick concludes.
Tessa suggests they pray for a Christmas miracle. I love you ¬kiss¬ After Mariah leaves with her takeout, Ian takes a seat at the bar. Welcome to Society, Tessa greets Ian. He grins – I love it already.
Having heard the food’s delicious at Society, ‘Warren’ can’t wait to try it. He’s a chaplain in the state prison system. Playing the role of happy-hostess, Tessa opines that GC’s the perfect place to start a new life.
These charges better get dropped, Nick scowls. No, we need more, Alan told us not to push to fast – we have to corroborate Sharon’s memories with evidence. Sharon’s sure. That’s enough for Nick. Wagging his finger at Mike, he snarls – the cops better find out who was there that night.
Back at the motel, Jordan goes back to asking Ian what he’d do if he went back to GC. He’d punish the wrong-doers – just like God did.
When Summer and Phyllis arrive, Lucy tells them about the snowglobe her Mom gave her then agrees that her Dad’s doing a crap-ass job of decorating the tree.
