The A-Team is hired by a distraught father to rescue his daughter from a fanatical religious community. No sooner have Hannibal (George Peppard), B.A. (Mr. T) and Face (Dirk Benedict) caught up with the girl than they are kidnapped themselves. At this point, the cult's crazed leader Martin James (John Saxon) inaugurates a hunting expedition--with the captured team members as his quarry! Originally telecast right after Super Bowl XVII, this episode introduces Dirk Benedict as Templeton "Faceman" Peck, a role played in the A-Team pilot film by Tim Dunigan. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Erin (Mary Elizabeth McDonough) is overjoyed when her old friend Laurie (Carol Jones) returns to Walton's Mountain. But there is little joy in the lives of Laurie and her hard-drinking husband Kenny (Ben Andrews), a mentally disturbed war veteran who vents his anger by savagely beating his wife. Worse still, Kenny is obsessively jealous, and this may prove disastrous not only for Laurie but also for Erin. Meanwhile, Jim-Bob (David W. Harper) plans to make a fortune by selling war-surplus materials--only to end up flat broke and deeply in debt. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Budding photojournalist Ben (Eric Scott) takes a picture of his sister Erin (Mary McDonough), who happens to be dressed in fetchingly brief shorts. The photo quickly gains wide exposure at the local army base, and before long Erin is basking in fame as "The Jefferson County Cutie" -- which, needless to say, does not meet with the approval of her father John (Ralph Waite). On a more serious note, the newly widowed Mary Ellen (Judy Norton-Taylor) has become obsessively overprotective of her infant son John Curtis. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

ABC Afterschool Special's fifth-season opener is the first of the series' episodes to focus on AlaTeen, an organization for the teenaged children of alcoholics. Ever since her father walked out, 15-year-old Francesca James (Carol Jones) has been the unofficial head of her household, not only looking after her troubled younger sister, Jo Lynn (Elizabeth Herbert), but also her hard-drinking mother, Lillian (Melendy Britt). Informed of the existence of AlaTeen, the cynical Francesca laughs off the notion that the organization could possibly help her -- and in fact insists she doesn't need any help. And then comes the terrible night when Francesca's mom, in another drunken stupor, falls asleep while smoking in bed.... ~ All Movie Guide
