Mitch calls Cristian and tells him he’s closer than he thinks and if he doesn’t bring his wife back to him now then there will be grave consequences. He tells her it was a prank call but when she quickly figures out the truth he admits to it. He says he doesn’t believe Mitch knows where they are and couldn’t make it there in the snowstorm regardless. They agree to leave, and not to take chances. She goes to fix a mirror before leaving and she and it fall to the ground. He helps her up and she discovers that her foot’s bleeding from the broken glass. He carries her to the couch and says she can’t go anywhere on that leg. He adds that if Mitch were coming then he’d already be here. She wonders aloud if he’s already out there. He goes outside to check and then checks her leg. He tells her it’s swollen and red, infected.
Viki’s ecstatic to see two of her four children in her living room. She tells her daughter that her prayers have been answered twice. Jessica responds that she’s back for good, for now. She seems impressed to have a minister for a brother. He tells her he’s assigned to St. James. Jessica says her father, Clint, told her to go back to Llanview because it’s what she wants. Joey assures her that they’re her family, not Mitch. She says she’s going to fight Mitch and they both agree to help her. She asks to see her sister and Joey informs her that she’s in hiding. Viki hopes for Natalie to come home soon too, safely, and Joey thinks it’s cool that he’s going to meet his new sister. He tells them that Bo has been working to get Mitch in jail. She says it’s weird wishing your father would get arrested and Viki reminds her again that Clint is her father.
Todd comes in and interrupts Viki’s family gathering. He’s surprised to see the siblings but is happy Jessica’s back. He cracks a joke about losing a bet and Viki informs him that Joey is preparing for the ministry. She hints that Todd should leave but he says he’s there because of Mitch. He says the Sun and the Banner need to work together. She insists it’s not the time. Joey takes Jessica in to the kitchen to make the “Joey special”. He notices a pattern in Mitch’s followers having double letters in their names and Viki immediately asks him why he’s so upset. After naming Mitch, he admits it’s really Blair. He says Blair always comes back. Viki guesses he’s there to help him get his family back. He tells her what he’s done this time and Viki is shocked. He quickly changes the subject to Mitch and her children. She says she knows Mitch won’t hurt Jessica so she’s more worried about Natalie because he’s hell-bent on punishing her. She wants to go after him but she warns him not to do anything rash with Mitch or Blair. He insists nothing comes in between him and his children and she needs to do the same because if anyone can figure out where Natalie is, it’s Mitch.
Joey and Jessica bond over coking Fettuccini Alfredo. She says all they need now is to get Kevin home and he knows that means with Kelly. He says he majored in forgiveness in seminary school and it was hard to let go but even harder to hold a grudge. He asks her how she’s taking the new changes in her life. He tells her that some things you don’t get over, you just learn to live with them with help from God and family. She says she can’t wait for him to meet his cool new sister. She says it’s weird that he hasn’t even met his real daughter yet. He again reassures that the three of them are Clint’s real children too even if though they’re all adopted. They begin to reminisce about the family and all the great things Clint is and does. She adds that Joey is great too and they hug.
