At the end of the Christmas party everyone gathered around and sang Christmas songs with Ethan, and 3-Jay both taking turns with the piano. 3-Jay and Alex are both very impressed with Ethan's ability to perform and offer's him their cards. 3-Jay let him know that if he ever found himself in need of help writing a song he would be there to help. Alex let him know that she would put his name out there to artist's and bands that were looking for musician's.
Leo was distraught over everything that happened between he and Ben. Camille tried to comfort him after Ruben and George realized they were unable to help. When Leo sat at his desk he opened the drawer to look at a picture of his wife Sarah. As he looked at it he saw how easily his granddaughter Sarah looked just like her. He confided in the picture that he was lost in how to deal with Ben, and truly wanted to do right by their granddaughter, but he was feeling hopeless because he couldn't even figure on a simple Christmas gift to get her. Leo realized that despite her trouble with alcohol Sarah was the smart one, and she would have figured out what to do.
As he looked at the picture he noticed something the locket that Sarah always wore with a picture of her parent's inside. She gave the locket to Leo and told him to one day give it to Ben when he had his first child, to carry the legacy of their family, and to let them know that they were with them. He wanted to give it to Ben years ago, but after Mercey's death he didn't think it was right. So as Christmas wounded down, Leo gave Sarah the locket and let her know that it was a gift from both he and her Grandmother. Sarah loved the gift and hugged him tightly thanking him.
Ben was a bit sad seeing the locket and also happy to know that Leo kept the locket and gave it to Sarah. Everyone left and as they did Ben gave Vincent, 3-Jay, Alex, and Karen the use of his room at the hotel. He decided that he and Sarah would stay in the mansion until they left, after Chloe begged a lot. Sarah was very happy to be spending another night in the mansion she really liked it. She also liked playing with Alfie, Toni, Jaimee, and Veronica. As it turned out they all loved Ranger Robots and each had their own favorite.
She loved Black Star who was a Ranger Robot who also rode a horse. Tony loved Red Storm who rode a motorcycle. Alfie's favorite was Blue Tornado who had a bird. Jaimee's favorite was White Flash who was the leader of the Ranger Robot's and rode surf board. The Ranger Robot's was a show made in 2020 that promoted friendship among people of different nationalities and cultures. Their job was to promote unity and acceptance for children despite their differences. This included children of same sex couples, inter racial marriages, different religions. They fought against evil's of bullying, intolerance, pollution, war, and injustice. They went to different countries, time periods, and planets, to help children in need who were being threatened by the villains of Darkness. Who would turn good kids bad to promote bad beliefs. Ben and the rest of the Secret life parents liked the show for it's beliefs, and teachings. Ben really liked the fact the show's owner's dedicated more than 35% of their income and proceeds to schools, and charities world wide.
Ben didn't like the fact he was going to have to spend another night in the mansion, but it made Sarah happy, and it did mean he had more time to spend with Chloe. However he worried about the situation that would transpire when everyone found out about Claire and how she died. He also wondered if having Sarah so close to Leo and Camille was going to be an issue, they had yet to realize he didn't trust them alone with his daughter. Despite the situation that caused either of them to hit him, it didn't change the fact they were abusive, and he would not leave Sarah alone with either. He guessed that would lead to a confrontation between them.
Not everyone was okay during the Christmas celebration. Alice and Henry were very upset at looking at Ben's friends and how close they all seemed to be. They were jealous at how Ben referred to them as family something they had never even had. When they returned from the party that night they didn't say much to one another. They put Alfie to bed and went to bed themselves silently not wanting to talk about the cold shoulder their best friend gave them, or the lives they now lived separately from one another. Both felt offended that their childhood friend of nearly 12 years was no longer their friend. But what felt worse to them was how the people in his life now, weren't just his friends, they were his family.
