Mayor Dorian Lord lights Llanview's official Christmas tree in Angel Square. Starr takes Hope to see the tree and she runs into James.
Bobby and James had been eating pizza for Christmas at their apartment, but James was depressed about Nate being arrested. Bobby suggests they get out of the apartment. James asked Bobby, "Do you think Nate really killed Dad?" Bobby doesn't know for sure, only that the police found the gun in his apartment.
Viki and Echo are struggling to have a "family" Christmas together. Echo wants to help Viki in the kitchen, but they disagree on how to roast the turkey. After a tug of war, they eventually manages to flip the turkey onto the floor. Nice.....
Rex and Gigi make plans to take Shane to see "Grandma and Grandpa." Everyone is starting to gather at Llanfair for Christmas dinner. Bree twirls in her ballerina costume, and John arrives with a surprise for Natalie. He gives Natalie his mother's diamond ring and she says "yes." They announce their engagement to the whole family, and it is a warm and deeply emotional time for everyone.
Dorian calls Echo to come over to do a photo shoot and offers to pay her $10,000. Echo is reluctant to leave her family, but eventually agrees to come over when Dorian says it will only take an hour. Clint shows up, just as she is leaving, and makes his usual rude comments to her. She says it is evil what he is doing to Charlie.
Viki and Charlie are finally alone in the kitchen, and Viki is happy as punch to be rid of Echo. She tells Charlie it is turning out to be a very merry christmas after all.
In the living room, Joey mentions his engagement to Aubrey, and Clint acts like he still disapproves, and is somewhat rude to Aubrey. Later, he sees her in the kitchen, acts friendly and says, Merry Christmas. It seemed very suspicious—as though they might have already known each other, and that something is up with them.
When Echo arrives at La Boulaie, Dorian takes her up to the roof and explains her idea for the photo shoot. She is going to put on a Santa hat and jacket and stand in front of the skyline of Llanview. Echo agrees it is a good idea. Dorian excuses herself for a few minutes, but Echo soon realizes she is locked out of the house and stuck on the roof in the freezing cold, shivering. She finally puts on the Santa hat and jacket and leans over the chimney to try to get warm.
The Cramer women are in the living room in front of the fireplace discussing Joey and Aubrey. Kelly tells Blair there is something weird about Aubrey. Blair asks, "Like what?" Kelly says Jessica told her Aubrey got a phone call last night that seemed a little sketchy and she got another one today.
Jack had been taunting poor Sam all evening about there not being any Santa Claus. Sam discovers Eli's box under the tree and wants to know what it is. Jack tells him their mother doesn't want to open it, but he they should open it for her. They go out to the backyard and that is when Sam sees Echo in the Santa costume on the roof. The boys rush up to the roof, just as Echo falls into the chimney when she leans over too far. She gets stuck and is wiggling to free herself. Jack knows that Dorian lit the fireplace, so they rush down to the living room and put out the fire just as Echo comes tumbling down covered in soot.
HO, HO, HO...
