As Danny's wife Maggie drives to the hospital her car is struck by a truck, killing her.

Beau's workmates, including Pok' Chop, throw him a surprise birthday party.

Beau gets drunk in the bar and voices his opinion to Duncan until Pok' Chop intervenes.

Eugene calls Carline to say he just wanted to hear her voice, then climbs an electrical tower and contemplates suicide.

Beau climbs the tower to push down on the fuse with a hot stick but is not successful.

Two years later, Duncan, Bailey, their baby, and Pok' Chop are at a monument dedicated to all the local lineman that have lost their lives in the service.
