Although a bit tough to believe at times, a very good episode.

In this episode, Richard Kimble has taken a real risk. This is because instead of doing the usual unskilled work, he's gotten a job in a hospital as an orderly...and the chances of someone realizing he's actually a doctor are pretty high. Not surprisingly, he's soon discovered and is shot in the process of escaping. Now he's not working at the hospital but is a patient! In the meantime, Mr. Leonetti (Telly Savalas) has learned that he is dying....but also has a deep hatred for Kimble as the Doctor killed his daughter...or so he believes. He loves the notion of Kimble being sent to Death Row...until his wife informs him of all the things Kimble did years before to try to save their young daughter. Then, Leonetti does something very strange...

This is a very interesting episode...well written and acted. My only complaint is seeing Mr. Leonetti change so fast at the end...that IS a bit odd! But well worth seeing nonetheless.
