Against Henrys advisement, Katie invites Mike and Jennifer to Christmas dinner while scheming to separate the two. Katie sends Jennifer into the kitchen with Henry, while she enlists Mike to help her with holiday chores. To Katies chagrin, Jennifer comes out smelling like a rose. JJ ruins Julias Christmas celebration by refusing to open his presents before Jack arrives. Julia calls Jack, who then calls on Holden to step in until Jack can pull himself away from Carly. Meanwhile, in a tender moment, Carly gives Jack their compass but is interrupted when Hal and Parker arrive. Hal, working hard on the search for Lucy and Rafi, needs Jack back on the police force. Jack agrees, but Carly takes a little longer to come around to the idea. Later, Jack, Carly, Parker and Sage share a warm, Snyder family Christmas. Back at Emmas, Luke takes thrilled JJ for a ride on one of the horses, and relieved Julia thanks Holden by flinging her arms around him, just as Lily walks in the door. All three play it off, but its clear that its gotten to Lily. Later, JJ runs into arriving Jacks arms. Bud, sick of Doms murder spree, unlocks Dusty and Jordan, who immediately attempts to enlist his help in getting information from Dom. Bud reluctantly agrees to try.
