Episode Notes
 
The opening scene of this episode was cut dramaticly for syndication, as well as the opening tot he next scene with Mrs. Freeman. They have only appeared on air during the one-hour version, and have not been seen since, not even on the Season 2 DVD.
 
David Kohan & Max Mutchnick wrote part one, while Jeff got the honor of writing the finale.
 
Originally aired as a one hour episode, though syndication will usually air them in two half hour episodes. NBC counts this as one episode, as they will with any W&G episodes that air as a one hour episode. This may also in clude Super-Sized (40 minute episodes). It was later split into two parts for syndication.
