Storyline

Young Zach doubts his father's assurance that sports will be fun. Aeden Bennett, who Dan got arrested for multiple child kidnapping offenses last time, is released from jail, and out on violent revenge. Dan survives a shooting but leaps back in time to a home where a young boy is locked in, terrified of his atrociously strict father, who 'grounded' the kid all day. It's young Aden, too scared to accept Dan's help. Adult Aeden now attacks Dan's wife. Jack gets a crucial part.

Trivia

Dan mentions he "came down near the Circle Star". The Circle Star Theater was a performing arts venue in San Carlos, California (near the county seat of San Mateo County, Redwood City and south of San Francisco). Its name derives from the fact that it was a "theater in the round", featuring a rotating circular stage and there wasn't one bad seat in the house. The Circle Star was demolished in the mid-1990s to make way for some dot-com businesses, all of which are now defunct.

Goofs

The phone number listed on the 'Important Numbers' note in Dan's house (415-555-0177) does not match the phone number that appears on Katie's phone when Dan calls her later (415-555-6562)

Quotes

Livia Beale: I die, you mourn, she comforts... you and Katie, you don't come together unless Livia and Dan come together first. She filled a vacuum I created.
Dan Vassar: So... you could say your mission was to get us together.
Livia Beale: I'm starting to wonder.
