Teri (Leslie Hope) and Alan (Richard Burgi) arrive at the hospital, and learn that Janet (Jacqui Maxwell) is the injured girl. As Janet undergoes emergency surgery, Teri worries about Kimberly's (Elisha Cuthbert) whereabouts. After turning Kimberly over to Gaines (Michael Massee), Rick (Daniel Bess) wants to split, but Dan (Matthew Carey) insists that they meet Gaines at the compound to collect their money, as arranged. Jack (Kiefer Sutherland) follows the police as they take Penticoff (John Hawkes) into custody. Jack convinces the police to let him speak to Penticoff, but Mason (Xander Berkeley) arrives and intercedes. Jack tells Mason that Penticoff is involved in an attempt on Palmer's (Dennis Haysbert) life, but he doesn't mention anything about Kimberly. Penticoff demands to speak to Jack, telling him that Kimberly will die if Jack doesn't help him escape so he can answer Gaines' phone call. Palmer meets with reporter Maureen Kingsley (Devika Parikh) and she tells him her very convincing sources for the story about Palmer's son, Keith (Vicellous Shannon). Palmer later confronts Keith and asks him what he did after Nicole (Megalyn Echikunwoke) was raped. Keith refuses to answer. Jack helps Penticoff escape, and Penticoff gets the call from Gaines, who tells him to dispose of a body located in the trunk of a nearby car. Hearing about the body, Jack fears the worst. Dan and Rick meet with Gaines, who has already learned that, contrary to what Dan told him, Janet is still alive. Gaines decides to show Dan the difference between dead and alive. ~ Josh Ralske, All Movie Guide

In the conclusion of Hunter's two-part Season Six finale, Hunter (Fred Dryer) swears vengeance after his mentor Dave Peterson (Ryan Cutrona) is killed just before his retirement, persumably by the thieves associated with a demented street fence called "The Captain". Meanwhile, McCall mulls over the prospect of marrying her former flame Dr. Turnan (Robert Connor Newman) and moving with him to London.

Hunter (Fred Dryer) finds out that the undercover cop (Blake Bahner) who was murdered during his investigation of a computer-chip robbery ring was actually the illegitimate son of Mafia don Sal Scarlatti (played by a pre-Law&Order Jerry Orbach). While Hunter tracks down the killer, the grieving Scarlatti maps out his own plan of revenge. But neither Hunter nor Scarlatti realize (until it is too late!) that the murderer is Scarlatti's other son Tony (Paul Regina)--who never imagined that he was snuffing out his own half-brother. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Marcia Wallace (The Bob Newhart Show) is cast as professional fitness trainer Barbara Terranova, who can only afford to pay private eye Thomas Magnum (Tom Selleck) for one day's service. Thus it is that Magnum is faced with the formidable task of locating Barbara's missing fiance--who has been targeted for murder!--within 24 hours. Fortunately, Magnum is able to work out a "barter" deal with Barbara, who agrees to train him for the upcoming "Ironman Triatholon" in exchange for a few extra days' detective work; unfortunately, Barbara is a VERY strict taskmaster (or is that taskmistress?), This is the final episode of Magnum, P.I.'s first season. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Magnum (Tom Selleck) is hired by Mitsu McWilliams (Irene Yah-Ling Sun), the wife of his old Navy buddy Dick McWilliams (Guy Stockwell), to ransom her husband from kidnappers. Mitsu also pleads with Magnum not to inform her father (John Fujioika), a wealthy Japanese businessman, that she is willing to spend $500,000 to free Dick; its seems that her dear old dad has despised her husband ever since he first laid eyes on him. Ultimately, it turns out that there is more to the case than a mere kidnapping--and that Magnum has been set up as a dupe yet once more! ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The first (and only) season of ABC's lavishly mounted sci-fi/fantasy series Battlestar Galactica begins with a spectacular (and spectacularly "hyped") three-hour opener, which in blatant Star Wars fashion rapidly establishes time, place, and characters. The time is the seventh millennium A.D. The place is Galactica, the only battlestar to survive a brutal attack by the evil Cylon androids (originally created as a worker race), which had the overall effect of virtually obliterating humankind and destroying the balance of interplanetary peace. The principal characters on the "good" side are Commander Adama (Lorne Greene), chief officer of the mile-wide Galactica; his only surviving son, Captain Apollo (Richard Hatch), head of Galactica's Viper (fighter) squadron; the resident "Han Solo" type, Apollo's cocksure ace pilot and all-around con artist, Lt. Starbuck (Dirk Benedict); Starbuck's fellow pilots, Boomer (Herbert Jefferson Jr.) and Jolly (Tony Swartz); Athena (Maren Jensen), Adama's daughter and second in command; Cassiopeia (Laurette Spang), Starbuck's erstwhile girlfriend; Colonel Tigh (Terry Carter), Galactica's first officer; Boxey (Noah Hathaway), Apollo's stepson; and, in the R2D2 tradition, a mechanical dog named Muffit. Leading the bad guys is the swarthy Count Baltar (John Colicos) and Baltar's willing if slightly dimwitted cyborg henchman Lucifer (voiced by an unbilled Jonathan Harris). In the course of the season, the crew of the Galactica, as well as those of the 220 minor space vehicles remaining in Galactica's fleet, race desperately toward the last known inhabited planet in space, an obscure little orb called Earth, with the relentless Cylons hot on their heels. Halfway through the season, the two-part episode "The Living Legend" introduces Sheba (Anne Lockhart), daughter of Colonel Cain, legendary skipper of the battlestar Pegasus. Sheba is briefly united with Adama and company when the Galactica and Pegasus join forces to ward off the latest Cylon assault. Beset by various lawsuits instigated by the creators of Star Wars and weighed down by low ratings, Battlestar Galactica comes to a climax after 24 episodes. The property, would, however, be revived in a dramatically altered format (set in the 20th century) as Galactica 1980; and a quarter of a century later, a new Battlestar Galactica (described as a "re-imagining") premiered over the Sci-Fi Channel. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
