After pouncing on Miles and giving him a New Year's kiss, Roxy explained that she wanted to reveal her feelings earlier but he was asleep. Miles remained speechless. "You feel the same way about me, don't you?" she asked. Roxy delivered a heartfelt speech about how she came to love him, and Miles said he cares about her a lot ... as a friend. She wanted her boxer shorts back and instructed him to take 'em off. He removed them under the covers and apologized for just wanting to be friends, but she took the boxers and stormed out. She returned shortly thereafter to throw them at him after realizing that you can't return used underwear.

At Capricorn, Layla and Vincent rang in the New Year together, and Kellen asked Cristian who he is and why he's kissing Sarah. “What's the deal here?” the rocker asked Sarah after Cris explained that he's the owner. Layla confessed to Vincent that she'd secretly hoped Cristian's voice would be able to have an effect on Evangeline. Meanwhile, Cristian explained to Sarah that seeing Evangeline made him realize he was ready to kiss 2007 good-bye and start off the year with Sarah. She still had doubts about the Evangeline situation but he assuaged her fears, so she told the band guy to get lost. Meanwhile, Vincent announced to Layla that his deal to reopen Lindsay's gallery was nearly complete.

Nora was startled and embarrassed to run into Clint while she was wearing a green facial mask. “You don't look like a woman who needs a mud mask,” he complimented her. Nora washed up and proceeded to share a heart-to-heart talk with Clint, who reviewed some of the lower points of his 2007. Nora toasted to platonic kisses being “so 2007,” but as they argued about what defines a platonic kiss, they seemed headed for another smooch.

At La Boulaie, Starr surprised Cole with a small New Year's celebration that involved charades with Markko and Langston. When Cole's turn came up, he said he wasn't into it. Markko's mom called and told him to get his butt home. Cole wanted to go home, too, but Starr stalled him with her grandma's cupcakes and ran to get some. Once alone with Langston, Cole apologized for being such a downer and asked how he's supposed to tell his girlfriend to leave him alone. When Starr returned, Langston broke it to her friend that Cole took off. “What am I doing wrong?” Starr wondered. Langston advised Starr to be patient and that Cole will let her know what he needs from her. Meanwhile, Cole returned home and interrupted Nora and Clint giggling in their pajamas. “I wish there was more I could do for him,” Nora lamented as Cole went to bed. Clint pointed out that it was past midnight and they'd missed a chance to celebrate. Nora rewound the clock and they blew some noisemakers. When the clock struck midnight, they hugged and Clint took the noisemaker out of Nora's mouth so that he could plant a big kiss on her. Meanwhile, Cole received a text message from Starr saying: “Happy New Year. Luv u, Starr."

Adriana wanted to pick a date for her and Rex's wedding. As she rambled on about wedding plans, Rex was distracted. He finally admitted that he felt like he needed to get back to Texas, especially now that they know the waitress who sold him the ring lied to him about Marcie. Rex confessed that the waitress he met was actually an old high school chum. Adriana asked how well they knew each other. “Dated and stuff,” he said. Adriana didn't like that Rex was thinking about returning to Texas to see an old flame, but he said it was because he thinks Gigi knows more than she said. “The engagement's off,” she announced, then explained that she realized she didn't know much about Rex's past. He said there'd been others, but no one he loved like he loves Adriana. “I would not have proposed if I wasn't ready to marry you,” he assured her. Adriana said she was ready, too, and they kissed, then made love on the sofa. Afterward, Rex noted that 2008 is going to be huge.

After Antonio and Talia broke from their kiss, Talia reminded him that she has to go. “Don't get on that bus,” he pleaded. Talia called Antonio out on kissing her just because she's leaving and it's safe, but Antonio said that wasn't the case. He explained that he realized he enjoyed having her pay attention to him because it was her doing it, not just anyone, and that her crush wasn't one-sided. He said he couldn't let her go without letting her know how he feels about her. But due to a mechanical failure, the bus to Cherryvale was canceled. Talia had run out of excuses not to stay. “What happens next?” she asked. Antonio kissed her again and asked if they could see what the future holds.
