Alex hangs on to life by a thread as Walker vows to make Storm pay for his actions.
After making some questionable game calls, the coach of the high school football team in a small Texas town is murdered, but Walker and Trivette don't believe he was killed by angry fans.
Tragedy intervenes when Alex is shot by an ex-convict, who holds her responsible for putting him in prison, just as Walker is finally about to ask her to marry him.
