At Wyndemere, Alfred tried to encourage Nikolas to spend New Year's Eve with his family. Nik slipped and mentioned he hadn't seen Emily all day.

At GH, Regina offered to baby-sit for Elizabeth. Liz was ecstatic about meeting Jason later and put a dozen roses on hold. Epiphany noted that "someone is planning a romantic evening." Epiphany then informed Robin that one of her patients, Ellen, was just admitted to the E.R. When Robin had Patrick paged, he accused her of sabotaging his New Year's Eve with Leyla so she could keep an eye on him. Patrick was initially upset, until Robin explained that the patient came to her via Georgie. He apologized and asked her to scrub in with him. As Liz ducked out, she told Epiphany not to worry — her son Stan would call to wish her a happy new year. Orderly Cassius noted Epiphany lit up when she got a call but it wasn't Stan. It was Toussaint, who was performing that night. Later, Robin appeared at the nurse's station and told Kelly that they lost their patient, Ellen. "I am so sick of losing people," she griped to Patrick.

Jax returned home with a severe winter cold, and Carly forced him into bed despite the big New Year's Eve party that was going on at Metro Court. Carly then rushed off to attend the party. Kelly called the house and got a sick Jax on the phone. She didn't spill that Carly was researching fertility.

At Metro Court, Carly ordered Jerry not to crash her New Year's Eve party. He laughed it off and felt bad for "poor baby brother" who was home sick. Jerry's phone rang and Carly tried to eavesdrop but couldn't from a distance. Carly demanded to know what Jerry was up to. He claimed nothing but Carly didn't believe him. Carly rushed home to be with her husband at midnight.

Lucky arrived at Sam's as she was thanking her mechanic, Joe, for fixing her car. He was not a ray of sunshine and Sam chastised Lucky for wondering if Joe could be the text message killer. Their arguing digressed to a kiss.

Liz got to the safe house, where Jason left her a gift, a canvas to paint on. She was crestfallen to find out he wasn't going to make it due to business.

In a touching musical montage to "Auld Lang Syne," Robin offered a depressed Patrick champagne, Lucky and Sam watched fireworks, Sonny was taken out of Kate's party in cuffs, Nikolas danced with Emily and they kissed. Carly made Jax wear a silly hat and they kissed at midnight. Happy New Year!
