"Dimitri sped off to pay his estranged wife a little visit. He brought up the fact that Maria thinks that Dr. Kinder was the man who rammed into them. Erica defended Dr. Kinder up until the point that Jonathan showed up on her doorstep. Jonathan accepted full liability for the accident. He said he leaned down to switch CDs in the car, but went through a stop sign and crashed into Maria and Kelsey. He said he stayed on the scene until Maria came to and then he sped off to call 911.. Dimmie wanted no part in Dr. Kinder's story and said that he is going to call a press conference to shed light on the high and might Jonathan Kinder. Jonathan comforted a dejected Erica after Dim stormed out of Linder House and asked her to spend Christmas with him. Jack brought Laurel an early Christmas present, her daugher Lily. Laurel said that it might be better if her daughter spent her nights in Pine Valley at Jack's because things were not exactly peachy-keen at Chez Dillon. Pierce told Janet that he was not interested in pursuing Brooke even if she had broken her relations with Adam. For an early gift, Pierce gave Janet a carved rabbit/Easter egg, remembering Janet's story of how Janet's mother denied her chocolates when she was a little girl. At school, Carla, one of Mike's students, ran out of class after Michael announced that he was gay. Shockwaves rippled through Pine Valley. Anita seemed freaked out by Mike's announcement, saying that she never knew anyone who was in the "gay thing." Laura and Kevin defended Michael, saying it took tons of courage to admit to the class that he's gay. After class, Dixie warned Mike that he opened a big can of worms. Bobby ripped into Laura and Scott, calling Laura a lesbian because she wears flannel and isn't a skirt and lace kinda girl and said that Scott was one of Mike's little friends. Scott and Bobby came to blows, but Mike managed to separate the two. When Mike put his hand on Scott's shoulder, Scott blew a fuse telling him to stay the hell away from him because Scott may be thought of as being gay by association. Laura went to spend Christmas with her family, Janet and Pierce, at the cabin. All three were overcome with emotions and settled down for their first happy holiday in years. Palmer told Bobby that he'd better bring up his grade in history, but Bobby countered by telling his grandparents about his history teacher. Dix and Mike went back to Mytle's where Grace and Myrt were busy decorating the tree. Michael told them what had happened and they were both very supportive. Myrtle told Michael to keep his chin up because people in Pine Valley are educated and kind, open minded people."
