Stephanie hosts a Christmas Eve dinner at the Forrester Mansion which is attended by Jack, Eric, Sheila and Thorne. In the Guest House, a miserable Ridge has nagging doubts whether his wife - who is supposed to return tomorrow - is actually working or having an affair with her patient. In Elgin, an agitated Damon leads Taylor to the grave of Mary Warwick which proves that she died many years ago, on June 29, 1957. Taylor asks Damon how Mary died, but he refuses to relive it. Taylor on the other hand has a hard time grasping why James would lie to her about his mother being alive while Damon accuses him of being her murderer. Later, Taylor is horrified to learn from James that the airport is fogged in. Back in L.A., Brooke tries to cheer up Ridge. She brings the kids to visit him and they begin to celebrate an old fashioned family Christmas. Finally, Ridge kisses Brooke under the mistletoe.
