Kayla and Steve clean up the diner after the Christmas party/ soup kitchen; Jade and Joey help clean up too.  They compliment each other on the way they were with the kids; Claire and Ciara wonder what it is Joey ever saw in Jade.  The new girl in prison is writing a letter to her mom when the two bullies come in; they grab her letter and see that she is telling her mom about them, calling them ‘horrible women’ – they throw her down on the table and get ready to beat her up.  Hope walks in and throws a chair; she tells them to let the girl go.  She pushes them away and steps by the girl’s side; they get all tough and Hope sends the girl out of the room.  They tell her they will pay her another visit, after they finish with Hope.  Chili comes into the room, screaming; the new girl went and got her.  The bullies leave and Chili says she has to get back to the Christmas pageant; it’s almost her turn to sing.  

Jade tells Steve and Kayla that the girls were making fun of her and being mean; Kayla says she will see, the Brady’s always stick together; family is everything to the Bradys.  The girls come in and apologize.  Claire gets on the phone with Theo; she tells him that she talked to Ciara about sharing a room next semester and she’s good with it, so they are all going to be roommates!  Ciara says she didn’t know Theo was part of the equation; Claire acts stupid and says, she just didn’t think about it, but “you’re cool with it, right?”  Ciara says, she guesses so.  But she’s not.  Joey asks Jade to go to church with him and his family; they always go to a midnight Mass on Christmas Eve.  As they are leaving, the family attorney arrives at the door.  He says it turns out that Hope may not have killed anyone after all; Steffano, he says, just might be alive!  

Hope walks into the recreational room and sees Chili sitting in a chair; she tells her thanks again for her help earlier, says she has a beautiful voice; she heard her performance.  She steps up to her and sees that Chili has a knife in her stomach; she is dead.  JJ tells Rafe what happened between him and Gabi; Rafe doesn’t quite understand when he says he wasn’t his secret to tell.  Rafe is surprised when JJ tells him that she has been spending all of her time with Gabi.  Gabi comes to see Chad; he is obviously nervous.  She says there is something she needs to know but she just doesn’t know how to tell him; he quickly says to her, “Abigail is alive.”  Abigail steps into the room behind her; Gabi turns around, dumbfounded.  Gabi grabs Abigail and hugs her, and cries, and asks how… the baby cries.  Chad steps out to take care of him.  Abigail admits that it was all a lie; she wanted everyone to think she was dead.  Gabi tells her how much they all missed her, and how Chad fell apart; Abby says it’s a good thing he had her around to help him pick the pieces up.  She’s not sure what to say to that.  Abby tells her that she saw her kissing Chad, and now when she looks at her, all she sees is them kissing.  She asks Gabi if she loves him; Gabi swears none of this would have happened if they had known she was alive.  Chad comes out and tells Abigail to leave Gabi alone; he says, if she wants someone to blame, she can blame herself.  

JJ comes to pick up Gabi; she is glad to see him.  Gabi tells Chad, everything is okay… they have their Abby back; she hugs Abby again and says she is so happy to have her back.  She leaves with JJ; they walk to the park.  She is still a bit mad; she tells JJ that he could have trusted her.  She tells him that she still doesn’t think that they belong together; he argues they are good together.  She says their not; she can’t get over the Miami thing, which is why she got so suspicious about him lying to her again.  He throws out her kissing Chad; she tells him they only got close because he is open and honest and doesn’t keep secrets.  He says they can still work this out; she says, no… they just aren’t in sync anymore and she doesn’t think they will ever be.  

Chad screams at Abby when she tells him she did all of this because she didn’t want to be a burden to him; he says he married her, in sickness and in health.  All she needed to do was be honest with him; he would have stood by her.  She turns around and asks him, “what about now?”  She asks him if he will stand by her now.  She says something made him walk into that room right at the moment she was going to walk out – she says this thing between them, it can’t be denied.  She steps up close to him and promises him she won’t ever leave again; she wants him to trust her now.  He says he doesn’t know; he doesn’t know how long he’ll be mad at her, but he doesn’t want to let her walk out that door.
