Episode Summary

Lily and Johnny are both kidnapped and held by a gang of blackmailing killers. They send a concussed, blindfolded Johnny back into town with orders to clean out Lily's bank account and leave the money where it can be picked up. Dan works with Johnny to figure out where she is being held before the men can get back to their hideout with the money. Dan knows they plan to kill her as soon as they return. The urgency both of them feel is indicative of the closeness the three of them have.moreless

    This was an episode that had a little of everything. Though they didn't come right out and say it, I assume trying to pass off that Johnny got a concussion from being hit over the head with the shotgun. Lily was taking care of him like he was a little brother. You got to really see some emotion from Dan when he's pacing all over the place worried about Johnny and Lily. He even got to carry Johnny back to the office over his shoulder again, showing off how strong John Russell must have been back then. It was also a cool moment when Dan wanted Johnny to stay, and Johnny said, "Oh, no. I'm goin' with ya." Johnny had a stake in this too after the way he got clonked on the head. The final shootout had Dan shooting two and Johnny shooting one of the robbers. My mother really liked the sweet scene at the end of Dan consoling Lily, and I did too.moreless

    • This episode ends on a very touching note, as Dan tries to comfort Lily after her rescue. This series rarely drew on sentiment, and Dan and Lily hardly ever touch. As he holds her (and not very closely) and pats her shoulder, the camera comes up close on his hands. Edit
