During the events of A Golden Christmas (2009) played by Elisa Donovan

Jessica and Henry drive to her childhood home and walk up to the house as Rod, Katherine, Anna and Mitch come out to greet them. Mitch hands Anna some money and they admit to Jessica that they had made a bet if she would even show up. Before bed, Anna sees that Jessica has removed some of the ornaments from the Christmas tree and asks her what is wrong. Jessica then admits to her that she wanted to buy the house and complains about Rod and Katherine selling her house. Anna calls her selfish and tells her that she can't stay away from family for years and then expect them to read her mind. Anna sees Jessica holding a certain ornament and Jessica tells her it is from the summer when she met Michael. Later, Jessica tells Anna that she isn't ready to start dating again after Anna tries to get her to go on a date. Henry tells Anna that Jessica never cries and he thinks maybe she wants to cry, but feels like she can't in front of him. He then tells Anna that for Christmas he wants to see Jessica smile again. After sabotaging the sale of Michael's house, Jessica admits to Katherine that she is a terrible person and she tells Katherine and Anna that Michael is the boy from the summer. Anna then convinces Jessica to try and speak with Michael at the Christmas party.
