Kimble returns to his home town in Illinois after learning that his father, John Kimble, has suffered a heart attack and has donated his medical library to the University of Wisconsin and in the process of selling the family house. While Kimble hides out at the home of his sister Donna and her sympathetic husband Leonard, Kimble blames himself for his father's condition, but is more troubled by his younger brother Ray, who believes Kimble is guilty and thinks he's to blame for ruining his life since people see Ray as "the brother of a killer". Meanwhile, Gerard arrives in town to search for Kimble and focuses on Donna and Leonard who try to shake off the relentless detective long enough for Kimble to get out of town before Gerard finds him.
