Boat in a Bottle (1) (4x12)

Fecha de emisión: Ene 30, 1976

Hughie and family befriend a young Japanese-Canadian who has come to Gibsons Landing to locate his father's old fishboat, confiscated during World War Two when the West Coast Japanese were ignominiously stripped of their belongings and shipped inland as "enemy aliens". They run head-on into entrenched prejudice from a completely unexpected quarter, old Colonel Spranklin, one of the Carmody family's best-beloved friends. Finding the old fishboat and the effort to get it water-borne again form the action of this moving two-part episode.
