| - Elizabeth meets Hazel, the new school teacher, as soon as she hops off the bus in front of Ike's store. The two find that they have much in common and quickly become firm friends, with Hazel sharing her many adventures with Elizabeth, and her love for teaching. The one thing that she does keep from Elizabeth, however, is that she has a brain tumour and little time left to live. After Mary Ellen discovers what is wrong with her she urges Hazel to tell Elizabeth, and when the time is right she does. Elizabeth is distraught. Jason tries to help Elizabeth to realise that she should treasure every moment that she has left with Hazel, rather than be afraid and angry that she will be going away. He shares with her, the feelings he had when his friend Seth died (Season Two). He points out that Hazel has shared many of her experiences with Elizabeth, leaving as her legacy to the younger girl her love of travel, art and teaching. John Walton also helps Elizabeth to realise that she should be enjoying Hazel's company while she can, rather than mourning her before she has died. Hazel's teaching methods come into question during this episode too. She is a progressive teacher who thinks that children have a right to know correct facts, and when she hears Serena, Jeffrey and Lauren discussing where babies come from, she tells them they are wrong and sets out to teach them about childbirth. Corabeth is aghast at the proposal, but Hazel says that although she believes that the place to teach the facts of life is in the family home, many of the children simply get no information, or misinformation. The childbirth explanation is brought about because Cindy is getting near the time of her delivery. Ben, however, is becoming quite scared about the prospect of fatherhood, and all the responsibilities which go along with it, and disappears to the Dew Drop Inn to drown his sorrows. Meanwhile, Cindy goes into labour and has to ask John to take her to the hospital where she has their daughter. Ben arrives at the hospital the next morning after sleeping in his truck, apologises profusely to Cindy and falls in love with their new baby daughter, Virginia
- It was near the end of the episode and an appraiser, James, had come to the table of a disheveled, tired looking man named David, who had with him a strange bronze idol of some monstrous being. Everyone else in the room was notably keeping their distance. James looks at the idol, appearing rather nervous. He tells David that this was "a bit out of his range" and asks David why he didn't take it to a museum. David ignores the question and asks James what the idol is. James explains that this is an idol made by the Tcalans, an offshoot of the Mayan civilization, which started their own culture around 2800 B.C. The Tcalans had a separate religion from the Mayans, which was dubbed "Zharkanism" by archaeologists. James briefly explains that the Zharkanism was a monotheistic religion, in which the creator of the Earth and humanity was an evil being called "Zharka." The Tcalans believed only an evil being would create a world with so much pain and suffering. They reasoned that all good in the world was a result of Zharka being asleep, and so they constantly sacrificed humans, Tcalans and outsiders alike, to ensure Zharka would remain in that state. James then says that he believes David's idol may actually be a depiction of Zharka, who had been described in ancient texts as having a skull-like face, two cranial horns, and a tail. James gives an estimate that he could easily sell this to a museum for upwards of five million dollars. David is completely unfazed and prepares to get up and leave. James then remarks about the idol, "Besides, I'm sure you'll be glad to be getting rid of that ugly thing." David then starts shuddering and tells James, "You shouldn't talk about it like that..." People scream in terror as James is suddenly incinerated, along with the building around them as the camera falls to the ground. This is the last viewable scene on the tape. Some research was made as to how the wreckage was dealt with. The burned bodies of all the attendants were found, along with several destroyed antiques. No remnants of the idol where found.
