At Society, turns out Adam and Sally have been given one anothers’ take-out; hers is a salad, his a burger. She wonders if the Newmans and Abbotts can live in peace.

Strumming their guitars on the patio, Daniel suggests taking a break – to discuss whatever’s bothering Tessa. He wants to help.
Cane’s thrilled when Lily boards his train – there’s no one else he’d rather ring in the new year with.
Holidays can be hard if you’re single, Vikki sits to empathize with Kyle. Hating what her father’s doing to his family, he wishes the Newmans would stand up to say ‘enough’ to Victor.

Cane thought they had a good time at the launch together but Lily won’t give him false hope – we’re further apart than ever.
Talking about it will make it ‘real’ for Tessa. It’s already real, Daniel points out. Tessa’s lost Mariah ‘and now I’m lost too’.

Lily doesn’t want to start the new year with a misunderstanding – she doesn’t want Cane back and won’t fall for it again.
No work-talk, Adam and Sally agree, then reminiscing about their non-new years eve last year, she talks him into sharing his burger.
Tessa saw on their ‘family tracking app’ that Mariah checked herself out of the clinic and left Boston. She’s never coming home, Tessa tears up.
When Cane declares his love for Lily, she calls him a liar. Having seen him kiss Phyllis, she won’t be played for a fool again!
