For Appearance's Sake

Karen ist endlich wieder zuhause. Sie lernt Macks Tochter Paige kennen. Gary Ewing versäumt die entscheidende Fernsehdiskussion mit Peter Hollister. Er muss seine Stieftochter Olivia von der Polizei abholen. Sie hat einen Unfall verursacht.

Abby and kids move back to the ranch to help out Gary's family image. Gary catches Abby in bed with Peter, but doesn't care. Olivia smokes pot and is suspended from school and steals Abby's car. She's is in a minor accident and picked up for driving without a license. Gary gets her, and misses a debate. Mac tells Karen about Paige and they invite her to dinner. Roses are delivered from Phil with a card that says "You won't get away next time." Greg changes his tires and gives Phil's name to police, saying he recognized him from the police sketch. They show his picture to Karen, who ID's him. Mac is shocked. Seeing his picture on TV, Phil shows up at Greg's office and says that police think 2 people were in on the kidnapping, and he'll tell police that Greg hired him unless he will help him get out of the country.

Karen, saine et sauve, retrouve Mac et ses enfants. Phil rôde toujours autour des Mackenzie. Désespérée par la mésentente de ses parents, Olivia se drogue à nouveau.
