Springfield is all set to bring in the new year. Citizens reflect on the past and wonder about the future.

Country Club:

Gus and Natalia are at a table, "Nick I've never been to a place like this before."

"Well I mean it's different sure. But I think it's nice."

"Well of course. When I'm with you everything is nice."

Alan walks over and holds his hand out, "Natalia may I have this dance?"

Natalia is surprised.

Gus is angered.

Towers:

There is a big party at Towers. Blake is there with Remy, "I can't believe this is almost 2008. Last year I was in a coma. What about you Remy?"

"Me? I was trying to keep Tammy away from Jonathan. I guess I should have done a better job."

"Hey I know we fight a lot but I really am sorry. Tammy was a great girl. I just don't understand why she wouldn't want you."

"What do you mean?"

"Well you're tall, handsome, strong, protecting,... handsome.." Blake stares at Remy.

Remy blushes, "You okay Blake?"

"What? Yes. God! I try and give you a compliment and you just turn it around and hurt me!"

"What are you talking about?"

"Just leave me alone!" Blake runs off.

Remy runs after her.

The Beacon:

Olivia is throwing a big party at the Beacon. Reva and Josh are talking, "So Reva have you talked to Marah yet?"

"No. I was hoping that would be my New Year's resolution."

"Come on. She's just hurt. She'll come around. After everything that has happened, we need to stay together."

Reva sits on the couch with Jeffrey in the lounge.

Marah walks in. She goes to Josh, "Hey Daddy."

"Well it's about time."

"Well, actually I can't stay long. I just wanted to say bye."

"Bye?"

"I'm going back to Paris. My work here is done. Now Mindy needs me back to run things while she's here."

"Marah if this is about Jeffrey and your Mom..."

"No. This is a business decision."

"Well let me drive you."

"No you stay here with RJ, he needs you. I'll be fine."

Josh hugs his daughter, "I love you. Call me when you get there."

"I love you too. And I will."

Marah looks at Reva. She gives her a quick hug, "Bye Mom."

She leaves. Reva stands up, "Marah..." Reva wipes her tears and she runs into the bathroom.

Jeffrey grabs his coat and runs out the door.

Outside Blake is running to the door. Remy grabs her, "What is wrong with you?"

"Just leave me alone!"

"No!" Remy grabs Blake.

Blake kicks at the wall, "I said.. let... GO!" The two fall back into the dirt.

Towers:

Dylan and Harley are sitting at a table, "Harley you okay?"

Harley is staring at her phone, "Huh? Yeah, why?"

"You seem to be worried about something."

"Oh no."

A phone goes off. Harley checks hers. It's Dylan's. He looks at it and turns it off.

"Dylan who was that?"

"No one."

"Is it the same person that has been calling you these last couple of months."

"Harley seriously it's nothing."

Harley's phone rings. She answers, "Hello?... Yes... really? Of course.."

She hangs up and looks serious, "Dylan we need to talk."

Dylan is worried.

The Country Club: Gus stands up to Alan, "You know what? I have had just about enough of you."

Natalia stands up, "Nick don't!"

"No I can handle this. You stay the hell away from her okay. You have had many wives and they all left you. Why because you are controlling. So don't you dare try to take mine."

Alan walks off.

Natalia walks over, "Nick? Did you just call me your wife?"

Gus realizes what he just said.

The Airport: Jeffrey runs to Marah who is getting ready to board her plane, "Marah! You can't go."

"Jeffrey I can't do this. I can't stand to watch this."

"Marah forget about it. We need you here."

"Jeffrey do you know what today is?"

"Yes."

"Of course. It's our anniversary of the first time we..."

"Marah just please stay."

"No! There is absolutley nothing for me here!"

Jeffrey steps closer, "Yes there is."

Marah stares into Jeffrey's eyes.

PART TWO:

The Beacon: Reva walks out to Josh, "Hey have you seen Jeffrey?"

"No. You want me to look for him?"

"No he probably went for a walk. How's Olvia?"

"As if you care." Josh smiles, "She's running around."

"Yeah I have a feeling Jeffrey is going to be gone for a while. Do you want to hang out for the night?"

"Sure."

"I'll get my coat. Will you be here waiting?"

Josh smiles, "Always."

Reva is taken off guard but still smiles.

Towers: Dylan is worried, "Harley I swear I was going to tell you..."

"What? No Dylan this is about me. There's a lot going on and I think we should take a break."

"Well if that's what you want then I can't stop you."

"Thank you Dylan." She gives him a hug. "I gotta go. I need to talk to Gus. I think he is at the country club."

The Country Club: Gus hold Natalia's hand, "Well we did always say we would get married someday so maybe.."

"Wait before you say anything, is there anything that could change your mind?"

Gus immidently responds, "NO. What about you?"

Natalia glances over at Alan, "No. I want to marry the father of my son."

The Beacon: Remy starts running the shower in the bathroom. He steps into his room to get undressed.

Blake walks into the bathroom, "Well I guess he thought I'd just forgive him if he ran me a shower. Well it's a start." She takes off her robe and goes in.

Remy come in wearing a towel. He drops his towel and opens the shower door to see Blake.

Blake can't help but stare herself.

The Whole Town is counting down, "10, 9, ......"

The Country Club: "8, 7, ...."

Gus gets down on one knee.

Mainstreet: "6, 5..."

Josh holds Reva's hand.

The Airport: Marah is still upset, "Give me one good reason to stay and I will!"

Jeffrey pulls Marah into an intense kiss.

"4, 3,...."

The Beacon: Remy stare into Blakes eyes.

Blake takes a step aside.

Remy steps into the shower with her and closes the door.

"2, 1!"
