The Fugitive: When the Wind Blows (1965)
This is a Special Episode
Kimble's compassion and understanding of children (quite befitting a pediatrician) shine in this episode. The boy has seemingly peculiar qualities which make him "different." By the end of the story, "different" becomes "special," in the very best sense of the word, before the word became misused and overdone in the decades to come.
The "conversion" of Steve at the end, and his newfound ability to relate to Kenny, is a touch of class. Skeptics and naysayers will fail to see it this way, but I believe most viewers will find the ending, and the episode as a whole, uplifting and even inspiring. The acting couldn't have been better, and hats off to the director whose invisible hand must have been largely responsible for an excellent final product.
