Amy to Chris: I just have this feeling if I take pi, well past all this static, take
pi to 10 million, 20 million digits, that I'll find something really incredible.
Not just a pattern, not just an order, but a sign. A mathematical sign. |

| Synopsis
(1): |
Chris hits and kills a dog when it runs in front of his truck. He visits the
address on the collar to apologize to its owners. When Amy Lochner (guest star Wendel Meldrum), a beautiful,
intelligent woman, comes to the door, Chris is immediately intrigued and, after
a few moments of conversation regarding her study of Pi and fondness for her
many pets, they fall in love. When Chris accidentally kills a second pet, one
of her parakeets, they decide that in order for their relationship to work it
must be equal, thus he too must lose something he loves. Although painful for
Chris, together they create the balance necessary.
Maurice's newly
acquired ancient Augsburg clock is delivered to Cicely with a highly trained
specialist, Rolf Hauser (guest star Mark
Pellegrino), to install it. Although the clock is stunning, Maurice is disappointed
it does not keep perfect time and demands a refund. Holling and Rolf help Maurice
weigh the value of time versus the magnificence of this ancient relic. |
