* ShoutOut to the Music/SpiceGirls: To get her to come down from on top of the elevator, Chloe's offered "twenty bucks, a pizza, a French manicure, and two front-row seats to the next Spice Girls concert." But Chloe's not convinced because the Spice Girls "broke up." %% I forgot who's offering all that stuff, Bud? Mac? Probably not Rabb...

As department head, Rabb secures everyone on account of the inclement weather blanketing Washington with snow, impeding car traffic and grounding planes.

Chegwidden is trying to make a flight to Italy to see his daughter.

Chloe (Mae Whitman) shows up at JAG HQ claiming to be Mac's daughter; she's in fact Mac's "little sister" in a mentoring program. Chloe's mother died of breast cancer four years ago, and her stepfather is an indifferent drunk.

Mac uncovers evidence Chloe has been abused. Rabb meets Lt. Commander Jordan Parker (Susan Haskell), a Navy psychiatrist arrested for drunk driving (one egg nog, she claims).

Chloe's birthday is May 17, 1987, and her biological father is Chief Petty Officer Kyle Anderson (Jim Hanks), who survived an attack on the sub he was serving aboard at the time. Chloe hopes her biological father has a farm.

Anderson is now stationed aboard the USS Cayuga. Chegwidden arranges a videophone call to the Cayuga, at an estimated cost of $4,000, after Mac justifies it because "It's Christmas." But before the call can happen, they have to get Chloe out of the elevator shaft.
