Plot Overview

Visibly worn and frustrated, a desperate Mike comes home from work after a day of avoiding Adam. Mike admits to Nancy that he spent most of his time in Fenwick Park, thinking and worrying about Laurie. Mike says that he can no longer think logically about the situation. His love and emotion for Laurie Ann overcome logic and reason. Nancy begs Mike not to tell anyone about Laurie's kidnapping, but Mike is still torn about whether or not to inform Adam and Bill. Ben Travis calls, insisting that he come over to discuss the canceled Washington trip. Nancy warns Mike not to even hint that something is amiss. Using a courtroom parallel, Nancy tells Mike that Travis is the jury, and it's Mike's job to convince Ben nothing's wrong. Mona and Barney arrive at the cabin and relieve Earl and JoJo. Mona is uncomfortable with the situation, and immediately feels sympathy for Laurie's plight. Laurie notices Mona's soft-touch, and playing for sympathy, cries that her wrists are sore from the tight ropes. She convinces Mona to loosen the ropes. As Barney comes through the door, arms full of groceries, Laurie makes a mad dash for freedom. Barney catches Laurie, then angrily chastises Mona for being stupid enough to loosen Laurie's hands. At the Karr home, Travis grills Mike about the sudden change in plans. Nancy, listening at the study door, is horrified when Mike states that he has a confession to make. As Mike begins to tell Travis the whole story, he notices a photograph of Laurie and Nancy on his desk. Mike continues saying he's compelled to admit that the loan shark doctor list is phony. All of the men on the list are legitimate businessmen. There's no proof whatsoever that any of them are involved with crime.Travis turns away from Mike, smiling, while at the cabin, a terrified Laurie cries helplessly.
