Due to the New Year's holiday, "Another World" will not air on Friday, January 1. Tito intercepts Nick's note and his bouquet of long- stemmed roses, then passes off the flowers as his own gift to Remy. As the key in his hand begins to glow, the disfigured Jordan Stark is transformed into a man with no facial flaws at all. Meanwhile, Cass tells an irritated Amanda that "David Halliday" is on his way over to check on his investment. As Remy waits in vain for Nick to call, Tito suggests a better way to kill some time. "David" introduces himself to Amanda, who is pleasantly surprised to find that Brava's major backer seems kind and unassuming.

Across town at the Cory mansion, Lila fantasizes about being in Cass arms instead of watching Matt trim the tree. Huddled beneath her blanket in the basement of the Love house, a feverish Vicky dreams of being home for the holidays, surrounded by the people who love her. Meanwhile, Marley suggests to Jake that her sister's failure to send the boys at least a Christmas card means Vicky has no intention of ever coming back. Amanda confides to Lila how thrilled she is to have found a man who loves her despite her faults.

Amanda hesitantly agrees to let Cameron stay the night after he misses the last flight out of the Keys. As Josie begins to book him for his role in the baby-selling ring, Dr. Hale reminds his arresting officer that he knows she's carrying her brother-in- law's child. With help from Tyrone, Jake pretends to be totally inebriated as he returns home to a solicitous Marley. Hale threatens to blow the whistle on Josie unless she lets him walk.

Weary and frightened, Vicky begins to lose hope that she'll ever leave her dungeon cell alive.

In her basement cell, Vicky hopes against hope that Jake will spot the tiny piece of red yarn and realize the note is a cry for help.
