Synopsis:

Meg's reckless anti-war behavior lands her in jail; the Pryors learn that JJ is MIA after he and his squad are captured by the Vietcong.

(From TV Guide)
Father Cassidy cracks down in the wake of the school play, and Meg and her fellow thespians are blamed for it. Meanwhile, JJ's secret mission in Cambodia takes an ominous turn, but Helen and Jack don't know that as they head off to the Poconos for their 20th anniversary; Nathan is released from prison and must perform "alternative service" in a VA hospital; and Roxanne moves out of the Pryor house --- and in with her "buddy" Luke.
