So I bought a Polly that had two plants in the pot. BOTH of them, the new leaf that was supposed to be sprouting was just a little dry brown piece that never grew. So basically they have just empty holes didn’t the last leaf.

Do I have any hope for new leaves or would I have to chop them and start over if I want new leaves to grow?

Hmm do you have a picture?

It’s kind of hard to get a picture because I can’t get it to focus AND be close enough to see. but you see that it’s just an empty space.
