The successivo morning, Lydia, John, and their Friends left Lydia's childhood home after breakfast. On the way back to Tennessee, Marie said, "Lydia, your aunt and uncle are full of malarkey. How did te put up with them for all those years?" Lydia said, "They never really came around very often. They were around più in my adulthood than during my childhood." Rebecca asked, "Why do te suppose they came around più towards the end of your grandmother's life?" Lydia said, "My grandmother had caregivers around the clock. My aunt and uncle didn't like that. They came in to mess up the caregivers' schedules, hoping they would get mad and quit." Pattie said, "That's just sick!" Lydia said, "It is sick. My uncle claimed that he had regrets about my grandfather. Regrets, my butt! He trashed his own father while he was in the damn coffin!" Gavin said, "That's awful." Catherine added, "It is indeed." Lydia said, "On the positive side, we'll never hear from those assholes again once everything is settled. I miss my grandmother, though." She broke down and cried. John said, "I know te do, darling." She said, "I wish everything was still all right." Pattie said, "Don't worry, Lydia. It will be. It won't be the way it was before, but it will be all right again." Rebecca said, "Pattie is right. Besides, we're here for you, buddy." Lydia smiled at her Friends and said, "Thanks." Catherine asked, "Would te like us to spend New Year's Eve with you?" Lydia said, "I'd Amore that."

Lydia and her Friends got cena and ended the evening with karaoke. They went to the hotel. After they unpacked their things, John called Lydia on her cellphone. She said, "I'm putting te on speaker so that te can talk to everyone." He said, "Okay." Lydia's Friends said, "Hello, John." He said, "Hello, everyone." Lydia's Friends introduced themselves. They talked about their adventure. John said, "You all were so noble to come to Pattie's rescue. Are te all right, Pattie?" She said, "I'm fine. I do hope Alan stays in jail. He is absolutely despicable and just sick." Lydia said, "I wish there was a way to get even with him." John said, "You don't have to. Karma will get him in the end." Catherine said, "John's right. There was a guy who hurt me and my friends. He ended up dying from alcohol poisoning." Lydia said, "I guess karma is real." After talking with John, Lydia and her Friends called it a night and went to bed.
