As Nell and the group adorn the Christmas tree, Joey feigns illness, eager to lend a hand without revealing his true intentions. During the festive celebration, the family reminisces about cherished memories. Ultimately, Joey confesses to Nell that his act of pretending to be unwell stemmed from his inability to afford a Christmas gift for her. Nell reassures him that it’s the thought that counts and that it truly doesn’t matter.
