This is a completely different episode of ''Series/{{JAG}}'' that has both lead characters deal with something deeply personal. Major Sarah [=MacKenzie=] receives a visitor -- a Catholic priest who informs her that her father is on his deathbed in a Catholic hospice out west and that he had asked for her. Mac reluctantly goes, but then unexpectedly meets her long-estranged mother. The two of them confront their past -- although not quite together.

Meanwhile, Lt. Commander Harmon Rabb, Jr. goes to a civilian ophthalmologist for a routine checkup -- and is told that what he thought was night blindness is actually retinal scarring. And a surgical outpatient procedure can easily remove that scarring and let Rabb regain full use of his eyes -- and maybe even return to flying full time.
