As is the case with all CBS soap operas, Guiding Light will take a break for New Year's. When it returns with new episodes on Wednesday, though, here's what you can expect to see:

• Ashlee makes a startling confession.

• Doris (Orlagh Cassidy, pictured) vows to get revenge.

• Buzz (Justin Deas) makes a decision about his future as mayor.

• Coop makes an awful mistake.
