This girl's got issues....

"Shadow of the Swan" is a strange and confusing installment of "The Fugitive"...so much so that I was left feeling dissatisfied by the time it was completed.

When the show begins, Kimble is attending a carnival. On his way home from the place, he stops by the lake and meets a gorgeous young lady, Tina (Joanna Pettet). She takes an instant liking to him and helps him find a job and get on his feet. However, this new benefactor has MANY hidden issues and she takes lots of crazy risks- -and anyone around her is likely to get hurt as she apparently has a history of nutty behaviors.

The problem with this one is that it's hard to imagine ANYONE acting like Tina...anyone. Her behaviors are so convoluted and strange that it works against the episode.

By the way, this episode shows Kimble tossing a goldfish into a lake. NEVER do this, as goldfish tend to take over...destroying the native species and leaving a lake choked with goldfish.
