After 27 episodes "Tru Calling" just fizzles out. Its a pity because the series was showing real potential. There were a number of problems. Mostly that the creators just didn't know what it was all about. It could have been a mystery because Tru's mother was murdered. Then it became science fiction with Tru being a time traveler. In the end it was a battle between good and evil with "unlucky in love" Tru being the good guy.
Basically the writers tried too hard.
In the final episode a Godiva asks for Tru's help. Unfortunately the corpse has been dead for six months. When Jack turns up the two enemies become allies as they race to solve a six month old murder before someone makes a terrible mistake.
The rewind also saves the day for Harrison who follows his dad to a flat where he is meeting with none other than ... Jack Harper. Because Jack has a memory of the day he is able to warn his colleague and continue the deception.
In the end a truce is called as Christmas eve is celebrated by all.
