K-Mansion - Holly and Tate are on the couch working on an English paper. Tate does not like the assignment (and methinks Re-Ron didn't like doing real work in school) but Holly points out college will be harder. Holly asks about Aaron. Tate says he's got other things on his mind. After a recap, Tate calls Aaron and leaves him a voicemail in which he tells him they'll put his name on the group project (which is not apparently the thing they're working on now). Tate struggles with citations and Holly helps him. They talk about having a 1-year anniversary and only one date. It's cute, perhaps.

Vancouver (establishing shot), weird break room/Square - Aaron and Cat 2.0 have a phone talk about what happened which involves a flashback. She tells Aaron mom slipped through her fingers. She doesn't know where Chad went.

Vancouver hotel room - Replay of Chad closeup to Clyde, JJ and Gabi holding guns on him. Clyde agrees to tell him where Abigail is. Cat 1.0 shoots him before he can reveal this important secret.

Townhouse Establishing Shot, Brady-Johnson Apartment - Steve is talking to Jack on the phone. It's a standard recap scene. Steve is confident they'll bring Clyde down. Later, Kayla comes home after taking the day off. Dr Greene has been replaced. Steve frets, Kayla distracts him with gift-wrapping and tree-shopping.

Vancouver hotel room - Shock that Cat 1.0 shot Clyde. Chad takes Cat 2.0's gun, yells at her about his precious dead wife. Clyde is still alive maybe. Chad threatens him to give up the info for medical help. Cat 2.0 is distraught, Clyde was supposed to be her friend. Clyde's pulse weakens. JJ calls an ambulance, Gabi is in disbelief.

Square - Holly and Tate have wintry clothes on as they discuss what they could do on a date. It's like a bad 1950s filmstrip except for the tepid kiss. They run into Aaron. They can't believe his mom is alive, if she still is. Aaron can only wait. Holly invites him to join them ice skating. He needs to shop for gifts. Holly and Tate will help. Later, they are seated and settle on some "Wellies", fashion boots, for Felicity's gift. They discuss Aaron's background (mom was/is Greek Orthodox, dad was Jewish, the family celebrates Hanukkah and Christmas). Tate talks about the Greek cookies his great-grandpa made. Aaron misses holidays before his parents' accidents.

Brady-Johnson Townhouse - The Johnsons have a tree. It's puny. Steve jokes Kayla loves saving hopeless cases. Kayla laments that last Christmas the house was full with Abe and Stephanie, now all their gifts will be shipped far and wide. Sadness leads to smooching. Later, they sit on the couch and look through ornaments including one that Joey made as a kindergartner. This holiday will be sad for Julie, Hope, and Kayla herself, as she was hoping Bo would wake up. She looks at a Deveraux family ornament gifted to them. Kayla talks about all the Steve-less years while looking through the box. They hope they can do the same for JJ and Chad.

Vancouver Hotel Room - JJ and Gabi fret, wondering if Clyde will pull through. Cat 2.0 comes in, gets an update. Cat 1.0 is in the hospital in shock. Cat 2.0 heads thataway. Later, JJ is hacking Weston's computer before the police can take it. It might be the only way they find out what happened. Later, it's a bust. JJ can't tell his parents that they don't know what happened to Abigail. Gabi will pray for Clyde to make it, and points out that knowing what happened to Abby's corpse won't change the fact that she's dead. He's a super duper brother hero in a long speech. They go the the hospital.

Vancouver Hospital - Chad asks a doctor for an update on Clyde Weston, posing as Ben Weston. The doctor is sorry. Later, Cat 2.0 has joined him. She learns Clyde flatlined in the ER and is in emergency surgery. Cat 2.0 was worried Cat 1.0 was going to kill Chad. She was worried. He was worried about her, too.

Square - Aaron tries to leave to shop on his own, Holly wants to stick with him, they recap the Lacrosse stuff, money is not Aaron's concern.

Vancouver Hospital - Chad admits when Cat 1.0 showed up, she had done something to Cat 2.0 to get free. Chad laments the mess catching the supercriminal has caused. A non-speaking officer-type guy brings a handcuffed Cat 1.0 in. Cat 1.0 loves them. Cat 2.0 overacts. Cat 1.0 asks about Mark and Aaron and Felicity. Cat 2.0 tells her they're all right. Cat 1.0 thanks her for saving her, then gets hauled away. Cat 2.0 cries, Chad moves to her.

Square Private area with snow - Tate and Holly have ice skates. Holly laments the way she treated Sophia, wants to be a good friend to Aaron, even though she's glad Aaron declined the invitation to their date. They have a hug before he buys her a hot chocolate.

Square/Vancouver - Cat 2.0 updates Aaron, is confident that mom will be released since she only murdered an escaped fugitive who held her captive. Aaron is less confident. The call ends, in Vancouver, Cat 2.0 laments that Chad won't get his information.

Brady-Johnson Townhouse - JJ has called Steve, who tells Kayla that they are all safe including Catharina. Kayla thinks this will be good news for John and will count this as their Christmas miracle.

Vancouver Hospital - JJ and Gabi arrive and Chad tells them Cat 1.0's arrested, Clyde's in surgery. JJ alerts him to the futility of his search. A doctor comes in, tells "Ben" that Clyde is is out of surgery, in a coma. END
 
Looks like they will be having Chad get together with Cat (who was wearing Gwen Rizczech's jacket). I think they will eventually release Mark from jail when most likely Chad will convince EJ it needs to be done. Just a feeling, no spoilers.

I also noticed that Holly no longer has blonde in her hair. I guess not having Nicole around she no longer has to resemble her anymore?
 
Thanks Jason. This sounds like stuff about folks who we haven't seen in a bit, but don't start or move a new story, while dragging out a story that has already taken too long to solve. But I guess showing Tate and Holly happy together and Aaron will show conflict for the story we've all written between Tate and Sophia but will have to see next week how that plays out.
 
Cat needs to comb her hair, better yet, brush it, looks like she has not done so in a week.

Surprised no one was able to tell cast member how to pronounce Hanukkah......tho spelled at times ...Chanukkah......you do not pronounce the beginning CH...........

Thanks, Jason, for the summary....Read it before I watched.....really appreciated it.
 
Hmmmm.......was raised in a Jewish neighborhood, and in high school, dated a Jewish boy for about a year and half........never heard that back then. Interesting.
 
After World War II, Chrismukkah became particularly popular in the United States, but is also celebrated in other countries. A Hanukkah bush that some Jewish families display in their homes for the duration of Hanukkah and Christmas.

Sorry to hijack the topic.

I just wonder how hard it was to find a tree in June for today's show?
 
Interesting about the Christmas combined with Hanukka........Never heard of it, in the Jewish neighborhood where I lived.

As to the tree.......probably a fake one, stored away with other set items accumulated over the years. LOL
 
These shows are short enough, do they have to replay stuff we just saw yesterday?

Do Tate & Holly know that Aaron's sister Cat was the one pretending to be Abigail?

I think Chad is definitely going to fall for Cat. I mean he loved her when he thought she was Abigail. I like the actress so I'm ok if she sticks around. I'm sure as soon as Chad is ready to marry to her, Abigail will really come back.

So Clyde is in a coma? Great.

Bo was just shot right? So why has he been in a coma for a year?
 
Shawn-D shot Bo back in April of 2023, so it's been nearly 2 years. In the one interview Kristian Alfonso (Hope) did, she said in the original storyline, Bo would've recovered quickly, then Hope and Bo would've returned to Salem to joyfully reunite with the various family members. But she said for whatever reason, the storyline was changed and they put Bo into a coma instead.

Edited to fix date; JS
