Introduction
FBI agent Jamie Perrin investigates a series of murders spanning a period of fifty years — all committed with the same gun.
Opening narration
- "We all struggle to define ourselves; to live our lives with some sense of balance, with one foot in the past, and the other reaching... for an uncertain future."
Plot synopsis
The gun is traced to Dr. Theresa Givens, a former employee at a top-secret government project. Mysteriously, Givens was only five years old at the time of the first murder, and the gun hadn't even been manufactured.
Closing narration
- "Our yesterdays are like a string of pearls — unbroken — unchanging. But if we could change our past, would that also change who we are?"
Trivia
- Amanda Plummer won an Emmy for her appearance in this episode.
