Touched by an Angel S4 Episode 1 The Road Home (pt1)

In the first half of a two part crossover episode of "Touched by an Angel" and "Promised Land", Joe Greene, the long lost brother of Russell Greene, returns, speeding recklessly down the highway. When another car pulls out in front of Joe, he runs the car off the road and kills the father and son while saving the youngest son. Lying to the police about the accident, he quickly leaves. Andrew arrives as a hitchhiker and offers to give him gas in exchange for a ride to Chicory Creek. When Andrew leaves, the car breaks down. Joe breaks into the home of Erasmus Jones, not knowing that his family is in the house. Russell says hello by punching him. When Mrs. Mills meets Joe, and he lies to her, Russell listens skeptically as Joe refuses to visit the boy he saved. With the sudden return of his father, Nathaniel is very angry, but convinces his father to visit the boy in hospital when the car miraculously starts. At the hospital, Monica reveals herself and Joe flees, taking stolen pharmaceuticals. Coming perilously close to another accident, he is stopped by Tess who takes Nathaniel, and demands that Monica return to the hospital. Upon his return, Monica encourages him to face the truth and seek forgiveness and that God wants to save his life. Joe returns to Erasmus' house and tells Russell about the car accident. Russell becomes enraged and tells him to leave. Joe then leaves without telling his mother goodbye. Hattie then blames herself. Claire then enters with a note from Nathaniel explaining that he had gone to help his father who needs him more now. As the episode ends, Nathaniel is stowed away in the backseat of Joe's car while Joe is popping pills. Guest Star Richard Thomas
