Narrator -"The children of the night have a murderer in their midst! On the
next -Forever Knight-"

- The children of the night are frolicking in their club of gloom.
- A cat fight breaks out on the dance stage.  --Ooops! Lost your skirt! 
- During the confusion, a young girl is raped and murdered. --Club of doom!
- Nick, Tracy and Natalie arrive on the scene.
- Tracy recognizes a friend who is an undercover cop.
- Bruce, Tracy's friend, tells them who the killer is, but Nick needs some
  proof and Bruce doesn't have any.
- Nick gives him a hard time and Tracy doesn't like it.
- It seems as though Bruce has less than an exemplary record and someone
  has been cleaning up after him.
- Nick recalls when he was a member of the French resistance and members of
  his group were ambushed by the Nazis. Nick concluded that they had a
  traitor in their midst.
- Bruce confronts the man he thinks killed the girl and teaches him how to
  fly off the roof of his apartment building.  --Aaaahh!
- Nick and Tracy arrive at the apartment building to question the suspect.
- Nick hears the confrontation and tells Tracy the suspect is on the roof.
  "You take the elevator, I'll take the fire escape!"  --Here we go again!
- Nick flies up just in time to see Bruce give the suspect his first flying
  lesson.
- Tracy arrives and Bruce lies to her about what happened.  --Nice friend!
- Natalie tells Nick and Tracy that it wasn't the suspect that raped the
  murdered girl, and he was probably not the killer.  --The plot thickens.
- Nick recalls a conversation with a fellow resistance fighter about who
  might have been the traitor. They think they've discovered the traitor,
  and Nick makes a terrible mistake.
- Nick tries to convince Tracy that Bruce is not the man she once knew.
- Brucie goes to a drug dealers apartment to confirm that a drug deal is
  going down. He questions the dealer's girlfriend at the point of a gun.
  Tracy has followed him and stops him from roughing up the girl.
  --Tracy is not amused!
- Nick and Tracy question some hookers about a lead.  --Are those real?
- Who really killed the girl?
- What terrible mistakes did Nick make during WW II?
- What part did LaCroix play in the confusion and horror of the past? 
- Will Bruce pay for his mistake?

Guest Stars: Callum Keith Rennie as Bruce

Review: *** This is a well directed crime drama with an emphasis on how
working amongst the grit and sleaze of the city can slowly turn a good man
into the same type of monster he despises.

The vampire lives in the back story where Nicholas was in the French
resistance movement during WW II. Nick had to face the evils and pressures of
war; and because of haste and misdirection, he stepped outside the lines and
the consequences were deadly.

As many predicted, the format of the show has moved toward the pastel colors,
young sex, and grit of 'Silk Stockings'. There is no doubt about it, they are
aiming for the 18 to 40 demographic. And as J.P. said about the new season,
"..it's a little Pulp Fiction!"

Nick seems to be maturing. He has more of a grip on things and seems fed up
with the guilt routine. The first part of Buddha may have been the last of
Nick's angst. 800 years is long enough to whine!
