"Guilt"
Lieutenant Gerard is looking over the counterfeit passports that Richard Kimble found in the One-Armed Man's hotel room and sent to him, when a call comes in from Kimble, who insists on the One-Armed man's guilt, "I got his face. You get the rest." Gerard demands that he turn himself in. Kimble refuses and the line goes dead before a trace can be completed.
Manchester, South Carolina. Kimble takes a job as a bartender in a small town tavern, where he becomes friendly with some of the locals, not so friendly with others. A scuffle with some underage trouble-makers puts Kimble in the hot seat with the local Sheriff, who happens to be the father of one of the mischievous boys, Zack. Kimble learns that one of his co-workers, Jesse, is also no stranger to trouble. With two strikes against him, he's determined to straighten out his young life, knowing that another mistake could land him in prison for the rest of his life. When Shelly, a young waitress from the bar loses her keys, Jesse demonstrates his ability to hotwire her Mustang. Witnessing this act, Zack and his friends come up with a scheme to get even with Jesse for their previous bar brawl. Gerard, meanwhile, has ordered an alert for Kimble to be sent out to every police department along the eastern coast, certain that a local department will be able to pick up his trail.
Zack and a friend steal Shelly's car, intending to place the blame on Jesse, but the prank turns deadly when an ensuing police chase results in an accident that kills the officer in pursuit.
Kimble, wary of the inquisitive Sheriff, decides it is best to leave town. As he boards a bus, he sees Jesse being placed into a police car. Risking capture, a nervous Kimble enters the Manchester Sheriff's station intent on clearing Jesse of the charges. He explains to the Sheriff that he saw Jesse working in the tavern at the time of the accident. The Sheriff decides to hold Kimble while he checks out the story. As Jesse waits patiently in a nearby cell, a picture comes through the fax machine. He recognizes Kimble's face in the Wanted notice. It's only a matter of time before someone sees the fax and fingers Kimble. A sweep of Shelly's Mustang uncovers two unidentified sets of prints. The Sheriff, covering all bases, orders his son Zack to have his prints taken. Zack pleads with him saying it isn't necessary, but his protests only point toward his own guilt. Jesse is finally released. He grabs the fax before rushing Kimble out of the station. Kimble tries to explain his situation to Jesse, feeling he owes him an explanation, but Jesse tells him it isn't necessary, "I owe you a lot more."
Gerard gets a report from a second forensics team confirming initial reports that there was no one else in Kimble's apartment the night of the murder. Referring to the passport photo and the name Fred Johnson, Gerard begins scanning a volume of mug books, looking for a possible match.
