Mary Livingstone has word that the train staff isn’t willing to cooperate with Jack’s demands. back in the present, Dennis Day is in the studio to sing, And Now I Know My Love Was Not for You.
Jack lets us know that his Christmas tree disaster on the train turned out well enough for the gang to have a nice Christmas Eve. what plans does everybody have for the coming New Years festivities? Interruptions from a knock at the door keep Phil from playing. You Walked By.

Pop songs that have Jack hep to the jive, a visit from Venus, and the first stroke of 12 arrives. The baby year arrives to get advice on trouble being caused in the world.
