On New Year's Eve, Jonathan confessed he still loved Susan and hinted at a deeper bond with her. He even gave her a lingering kiss, which led to Brandon confronting him. Meanwhile, Colin asked Valerie to hide his stash of coke to keep it from Kelly. After getting Colin home, a fight broke out with David, and when Kelly blamed Valerie for Colin’s issues, she decided to hand over the drugs and distance herself. Meanwhile, Joe’s Christmas gift to Donna, a bird, flew away, leading Donna, David, and Joe to spend hours trying to retrieve it.
