A rather nice Christmas Eve in Salem, well, let's say 98% nice. LOL. In the prison, Hattie is attempting to decorate the rather dismal looking Charlie Brown tree in the visitor's room. Eve comes rushing in, just off the phone with St. Justin, who got her released. She is out of there. Merry Christmas! Later, a guard come in, looking rather solemn, Hattie wonders what she did now. Guard smiles, early Christmas gift, you have been released. Hattie dances around, happy as a lark, starts to leave, but goes back to hang one more snowman on the tree, and she is out of there!
Jennifer is tending to JJ in the hospital, he is thanking her, she just wants no more secrets between them. She is so grateful to Eli for getting JJ to the hospital, is not angry he kept his word to JJ, not telling them. JJ says one more person knew.
At Horton house, Doug has put lights on the tree, Julie is distracted, doesn't even rearrange them as she usually does. She finally admits to Doug she has been keeping a secret for long, it is wrong. Next scene she is off phone with Jen who called, all is o.k., JJ told her Julie knew, Jen not mad. Now about those lights! LOL.
Back at the hospital, Jack & Abby have come in, the family is spending Christmas together. JJ tell them to go to the ornament hanging, tradition. Nope, this is where they will stay, don't want to be anywhere else. They flashback to last year, Jen in coma, all in her room for Christmas. JJ will not have it. He decides there has to be some doctor in the hospital who will release him, everyone gets all excited, looking for his clothes, leaving room so he can get dressed.
Chad is at home, reading A Christmas Carol to Thomas & Charlotte, Gabi appears in the doorway, he smiles, starts talking of them having Scrooge right there. Gabi smiles, tells the kids when she gets all the shares someone else will be the scrooge. LOL. Cute scenes, Chad takes the kids, leaves. Eli finds Gabi sitting, planning on staying home, he talks her into changing her mind, coming with him.
Back at the Horton house, Chad has come in with the kids, Julie wants to talk to him about Gabi, gets him to the side, reminds him Gabi saved her life, and he should put his negative feelings aside today.
But Julie figures with all going on, no one will come to hang ornaments. Doug tells her to have faith, doorbell, what did I tell you. She opens in to the entire Deveraux clan, is so thrilled to see JJ (hey, he shaved!) Chad happy to see Abby, who hugs her kids.
At the Kmansion, Xander is rather down in the dumps, as Maggie ends a call from Sarah, not giving him a chance to wish her Merry Christmas. Maggie invites him to go with her to the Horton's, Vic has claimed a headache, but Xander declines, will stay, have a drink with the grouch. She leaves, giving him a hug first. Xander roams around, drinking something from a cup, but he keeps spiking it from his little flask. He remembers last Christmas, Sarah very pregnant, talking of the baby, him playing Santa, Sarah actually saying to him “you have not forgotten you are not really the baby's father, have you?”. He does a few more flashbacks, calls Sarah, gets voicemail. (Maggie mentioned Eric & Sarah were meeting with Mackenzie's doctor).
Eli & Gabi arrive, there is talk of Peace on Earth, not the time or place for animosity. And finally the ornaments get hung, Julie hangs Tom & Alice's, telling young Thomas about her grandfather, a wonderful man, and Thomas is named after him. She & Doug hang each other's side by side. Maggie does Mickey, Sarah & one for Mackenzie. The Deveraux family all hang theirs, Chad helps Thomas. Julie takes one over to Gabi, talking of how she hopes Gabi hangs it close to hers, she gave Julie her husband's heart, and opened her own. Eli hangs his, and David Abraham's. I think it is Doug talking of peace, forgiveness, happiness, etc. And in walks Eve saying Bah, humbug! She rushes over to thank Abby for all she did for her, truth & justice, etc. But then your parents are another story, she rants of them. (Everyone is silent, not saying boo, as she goes on and on. She finally says she has something for all of them, reaching into her purse. Eli rushes over, thinking she has a gun, but she pulls out a one way plane ticket, glad to leave all you losers behind. Julie had said that is enough, Eve, but she did not think so, but she finally goes. The couples all snuggle a bit.
And then everyone is back at home. Chad & Abby have put their kids to bed, and time for themselves to get cozy.
Hattie stands in hallway, talking of how Marlena said she owed her big time for saving her life, and right now she needs someplace to stay. She knocks on the door.
Maggie comes into living room, with a plate, saying Xander, I brought you some food........but no Xander! Where did he go?
Eli gives Gabi a gift (at DiMeras) it is a frame with fortunes inside from last year. (flashback had Gabi seeing Eli in square, he ditched the ornament hanging, she invited him to her place as she over ordered Chinese, not wanting to go to Rafe's nacho dinner.) They both had gotten same fortune.....you will meet someone, and it will change you. She is touched.....kissing.
Julie tells Doug that JJ is tucked away nicely now in his room, Jack & Jen at the tree, this was the best Christmas ever!
In Boston, Sarah opens her door in answer to a knock. Surprise, it is Xander, got a lift from ….....sorry, I could not make out what he said. He came to see his 2 fav girls. Merry Christmas, Sarah.
