Dunne's Choice (1x7)

Data de estreia: Ago 27, 2002

When the USS Gadsden submarine ends up stranded, Bill's friend, the hotshot Admiral Mack Riles, persuades him to sit on the story for a while. A nervous Janet, who overhears their conversation, gets the co-anchor job. Quentin is excited when a prison grants him and Jamie (who vehemently opposes the death penalty) an exclusive interview with convicted serial killer Raymond Paul Briner, who's being executed this week, and who might spill the beans on where he buried a female victim -- which would allow her parents to give her a proper burial. After CNN breaks the sub story and Riles sells Bill a bogus excuse as to what went wrong, Janet puts on her Sherlock Holmes' cap to get to the bottom of the mystery: Riles pushed up its launch date before kinks were worked out, sent it off to Korea, and is pulling the wool over his friend's eyes. Bill helps his wife, Allison -- who quit a job at ABC -- find work at I24, while Mel tries to convince Peter to give him less work so he can have more time for Russell. Thanks to Janet, Bill opts to expose Riles even before learning that all 140 sailors died on board.
