Reunion

Ben wird weiter von Jean Hackney bedrängt. Mack weiß nicht mehr, wo er seine Frau suchen soll. Bei Greg Sumner meldet sich ein alter Studienfreund. Phil Harbert glaubt, dass man ihm auf der Spur ist. Er legt Feuer in dem Haus, in dem er Karen gefangenhält.

Jean calls Ben and he tells her never to call him at home. Ben poses Val a hypothetical question: Should he do a report on a man who was once in a subversive group that bombed a building, but had gotten out and was now a responsible man with a family? Val says no, as it would hurt his family. Abby shows up at a speech that Gary gives, and tells Jill that she will be with Gary morning, noon and night. However, she gives Peter copies of Gary's speeches and schedule. Phil tells Karen that he wants Mac to feel what it's like not to know where his wife is. Phil says that Mac sent him to jail and he didn't know what was happening to his wife, and then she died. He says he'll let Karen go in a year. Greg decides to really clean up Empire Valley. Phil stops by to see Greg. Greg excitedly tells Laura that he's a good friend from law school.

Le rapt de Karen est une vengeance personnelle du ravisseur contre Mac. Gary prononce son premier discours électoral tandis qu'Abby se présente comme Mme Ewing. Greg assainit l'Empire Valley afin que Ben soutienne la candidature de Victor.
