Air date: Dec 31, 1996

Ned is trying to encourage Jan to come inside when Frank arrives. He is not welcome at the Glovers and Ned tells him so. Frank offers to pay for Dave's funeral, but Ned sees this as an attempt to buy off his guilt over Dave's death and tells him to go. Mandy overhears Betty talking about someone's death in the Post Office. She collapses when she hears that it is Dave (her hero). Betty tries to comfort her, but she is hysterical. Tom asks Vic if he is going to the New Year party at the wine bar tonight. He isn't, but Kelly is interested. Betty offers to take her. Zak reflects that 1996 has been one of the worst years of his life - Nellie, Sam and Tina have all left him. He is even more depressed when Butch reminds him that he is still here. Albert asks Marlon to lend him some money for New Year. Zak challenges Albert that he and Butch can each get a woman that evening.
