Shane and Victoria woke up in the New Year after making love. They realized that while they wanted to go slow, they were enjoying each other's company so they continued to see each other and sleep with one another. Shortly after, Victoria was late and worried that she was pregnant. She feared that having just recently got healthy, she wasn't ready to be a mother just yet. She told Shane that she was late and he was excited at the idea of being a father again. Together, they took a pregnancy test and she was relieved that it was negative. Shane, however, was upset by her reaction. She admitted to him that didn't think she would ever be a mother but Shane did want more children so they agreed to go their separate ways.

Vinny continued to hold Brett and Daisy hostage in the Victors mansion as a way to get revenge on them. They pleaded with him to let them go to no avail. Trenyce and Tyler, meanwhile, pleaded with Simona to reopen the case into Daisy's "death". Simona agreed but they she found no evidence to support Daisy being alive. Felicia suggested to Tyler that he hold a small memorial for Daisy to help with the grieving process and adjusting to the idea that she was gone. A memorial was held but Trenyce still suspected that Daisy might be alive. She secretly hired Meggan and Brad to investigate but held it from Tyler as she didn't want to get his hopes up. Soon after this, Victoria saw Vinny walking on the pier and was stunned that he was alive! He admitted that he survived but Daisy did not. Of course, Victoria told this to Tyler and Trenyce, so they confronted Vinny, who still maintained his claim that Daisy died. Simona agreed to reopen the case, again, but still found no evidence that Daisy was alive. Vinny and Victoria, meanwhile, reconnected and soon become lovers again. Vinny, lonely at the mansion, asked Victoria to move in with him. Despite Eva's reservations, Victoria agreed and she moved into the mansion. With the house so huge, Victoria started to explore and almost found the secret passage which caused concern for Vinny. Victoria then realized that Meggan and Brad were looking into Vinny as they thought he was hiding something and told them to back off. Victoria, however, then saw Vinny emerge from the secret passage and thought something was going on. Meggan and Brad told her to keep Vinny at bay but look around. Victoria, then, found the secret passage and thought she heard voices! Meanwhile, in the cage, Daisy and Brett grew closer as they thought they would never get out. They tried to keep each other positive but it didn't always happen. Eventually, they made love to one another. They thought they heard a noise and pleaded for help. Vinny told them that no one would ever find them. Victoria told Meggan and Brad about the passage way and the voices. They realized that they had to see what was in the tunnel. Victoria drugged Vinny and once he was passed out, the three of them went into the tunnels of the Victors mansion. They were stunned to see Daisy and Brett in the cage! Before they could be saved, Vinny emerged and revealed that the mansion had bombs in it! He set them off leaving everyone in the rumble. At the hospital, everyone survived except for Brett. Vinny, however, claimed he was Brett to avoid jail time. Vinny contacted Bryce to alter a DNA test to "prove" that he is Brett. Daisy and Victoria breathed a sigh of relief that Vinny was dead. Vinny, secretly, plotted revenge on Victoria and Daisy. He planted a device on Victoria's phone that released a high pitch noise, which caused Victoria to suffer from headaches. She collapsed and missed Christmas, which concerned Eva and Donovan. Eva told Donovan that she suspected that Victoria's alter egos had returned.

Lukas and Craig were saved from the mountain and given a clean bill of health. Lukas was secretly happy when Craig claimed to have no memory of what happened in the cave, which meant Donovan would never have to find out that they had sex with each other. Donovan and Lukas reunited and left for their honeymoon, while Craig started having nightmares about the cave. He admitted to Andy and Nicholas that he felt raw as if he was the bottom lately, which he never does. They took him to the doctor, where he it was revealed that he had torn glands. Craig didn't understand but eventually remembered the entire time in the cave! At the same time, Donovan and Lukas had agreed to try to adopt a child. At a celebratory party that Eva threw Donovan, Simona arrived and arrested Lukas for rape! Donovan was horrified. Once Lukas was out on bail, he confronted Craig who maintained that he didn't consent to the sex. Lukas continued to tell him that he would have died had he not acted the way he did. Lukas had to admit the truth to Donovan, who was floored. Donovan confronted Craig and admitted that before Donovan's wedding, he and Lukas had been flirting and shared a few kisses. Donovan was furious with Lukas. Lukas, then, asked Craig what it would take to make this all go away. Craig told him he wanted 1 million dollars. Meggan reminded Lukas that they had money from Frederick that were locked up in GIC's. They withdrew the money; once Craig had the cash, he dropped the charges against Lukas and left town. Lukas and Donovan worked on trying to get back together and eventually did so. They continued to plan for the baby that they were going to adopt. Donovan was nervous when he found out that no adoption papers would be signed until the baby was born. Soon, they were at the hospital when Chantel went into labour. They had no idea that Chantel's baby was stillborn; Bryce, who was being blackmailed by Vinny, switched her baby with Abby's; Donovan and Lukas adopted Abby's baby, whom they named Olly while Abby was given Chantel's stillborn. Donovan and Lukas rejoiced with their baby. Knowing that Abby and Andrew were grieving their son, Sonny, Donovan invited them over to see Olly.

Abby went to Andrew and reminded him that she still knew his secret affair with Albertinah and if he didn't give them a chance to be together, she would expose it! Andrew told her he wouldn't be blackmailed into a relationship with her. Soon after at Andrew's graduation, he was given his diploma and Albertinah won a teaching award of excellence. Abby told the dean of their affair, however, and Albertinah was fired and Andrew lost his diploma. Chris and Trenyce were stunned to learn of Andrew and Albertinah's affair. As a result, Albertinah skipped town and Andrew lashed out at Abby. Abby pleaded with him to give her another chance but he refused. Upset, Abby and Max ended up having an one night stand, which they agreed was a mistake. Abby continued her quest to try to make it up to Andrew and he finally had sex with her too. Afterwards, Andrew told Abby that he used her for sex and she meant nothing to him. Abby was crushed and realized that she had lost Andrew. She, then, ended up pregnant and didn't know who the father was. She told Max, who was excited at the idea of being a father. Abby, thinking that a child would bring her and Andrew together, told Max that Andrew was the father and not him. Cassie arranged for a paternity test, which confirmed that Max was the father of the baby. Abby lied to everyone, however, and claimed that Andrew was the father. Max was crushed but supported his friend. Andrew, however, was horrified that he was going to be a father as he wasn't ready. He suggested to Abby that she have an abortion but Abby was against the idea. Andrew finally came around and agreed to support Abby with whatever she wanted to do. Abby and Andrew grew closer and she agreed to put the baby up for adoption, which thrilled Andrew. Abby was happy that Andrew was growing closer to her and they felt the baby kick a few times. Albertinah, then, returned to town and reunited with Andrew. Abby learned and was furious, which caused her to fall down the stairs. Both mother and child were okay but the accident made Abby realize that she wanted to keep the baby. Andrew was against the idea but Abby told him that she would raise the baby on her own. Andrew confided to Vinny that he was not ready to be a father. Abby then went into labour and was rushed to the hospital. Vinny blackmailed Bryce into helping him arrange a baby switch to ensure that Andrew wasn't a father. Bryce told Abby she would need an emergency c-section; when Abby awoke, she was told her baby was stillborn. She had no idea that Chantel, another woman who was giving up her baby for adoption, gave birth to a stillborn but Bryce actually switched the children. Donovan and Lukas ended up adopting Abby's child, Olly. Abby lashed out at Andrew for always wanting their child dead but instantly grew an attraction to Olly. Albertinah helped support a devastated Andrew, who blamed himself for the child's death.
