After too many years away, brittle big-city doctor Sydney Ludwick (Lisa Hartman Black) returns to her home town of Bloomfield for a high school reunion. She is mildly surprised to find out that her widowed mother Helen (Rue McLanahan), with whom she hasn't communicated since the death of her dad, has transformed the family home into a bed-and-breakfast. Likewise bidding fair to bring change to Sydney's life is the fact that her high school sweetheart Gus (Dale Midkiff) is now a widower. But nothing quite prepares Sydney for the revelation of a dark secret that her mother has been harboring for years, with the tacit assistance of local pastor Ed Jenkins (Don Harvey). The background music is provided by country singer Clint Black, husband of the film's leading lady. Produced for cable's Hallmark channel, Back to You & Me originally aired on July 23, 2005. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Now that a live transmission system has been set up between Voyager and Earth, the crew receives its first Starfleet order in years. Their mission: To search for Friendship One, an Earth probe that has been missing since the year 2067 A.D. Tracing the probe to a planet held in the grip of nuclear-winter radiation, the Away Team is captured by a band of hostile aliens, who hold all humans responsible for their dismal existence. Janeway's (Kate Mulgrew) only hope to rescue her colleagues is to find a new home planet for the aliens -- but this may not be possible for several years to come. As originally conceived, this episode was to have featured James Cromwell in his Star Trek: First Contact role of Zephram Cochran, but Cromwell was unavailable. "Friendship One" initially aired on April 25, 2001. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The detectives scour the streets for clues after the murder of a schizophrenic woman. Their search results in the arrest of a homeless man who likewise has severe mental problems. The suspect's defense hinges upon his right to refuse his antidepressant medication -- which, according to attorney Danielle Melnick (Tovah Feldshuh), will render her client mentally incompetent and thus unable to stand trial for murder. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The detectives discover that a young junkie found dead in the yard of a day-care center was the daughter of a wealthy family. Further investigation reveals that the woman was taken to her final "resting place" as she was dying. The question: Is it possible that someone very close to the victim would have allowed her to perish in so ignominious a fashion? ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
