Episode 1730

Cruz receives the visit of an agent of the State department asking him for his participation in an affair which relates to national security. He asks him to trap Helmut Dieter, a German gunrunner whose cover in the United States conducts business with C.C. Capwell. C.C. asks for Katrina's assistance to translate documents into German, with the aim of an appointment with Dieter. To please Kelly, Mason agrees to defend Quinn during his bail application. Julia gives in to requests from Kelly and Mason and gets Quinn released on bail, while Flame stays in prison. Cruz asks for Julia and Michael's assistance to find a woman who speaks fluent in German and French, so that she takes the place of contact who Dieter must meet in Santa Barbara. Michael immediately thinks of Flame. The idea neither persuades Julia, nor Cruz. Kelly presents Quinn with plane tickets and recommends running away from the country as quickly as possible while he is still free...

Paul Rauch is credited as executive producer in the ending credits, just as henceforth Bridget and Jerome Dobson.

Episode 1731

Mason gets on well with Katrina. He offers to make her visit the city. Gina continues dreaming of the identity of her sperm donor, and pictures himself currently with John Wayne. Michael subjects Flame to the idea that she helps Cruz to hold Helmut Dieter. Cruz receives the visit of Drew Petersen, an agent sent by the State department with whom he has already worked with, and who is made responsible for backing him up and for watching the advance of his action. Petersen does not prove to be favourable of the idea of using a double to take the place of Chantal Gutierrez, Dieter's contact in Santa Barbara. Cruz tests Flame on her competences in Spanish and in French, and on her fidelity towards him. He learns by Peterson that Dieter should not finally arrive in two days, but in two hours. Really, the man already makes his arrival in the Oasis, facing Gina. Mason refuses to continue defending Quinn. Quinn faces the facts: he is going to have to leave Kelly for good...

Episode 1732

Cruz, Michael and Drew Petersen go to the airport to welcome Chantal Gutierrez and Raul Mendez, both contacts of Dieter. Kelly accompanies Quinn before the flight. They make love last time in front of the airstrip, before Quinn goes up to his plane. Cruz points out Kelly scanning a plane and understands that Quinn is escaping.

Both watch the plane with Quinn flying off...

Cruz and Drew Petersen question Chantal Gutierrez and Raul Mendez, who keep silent at first. Cruz discovers that both wear contact lenses while their viewing capacity is very good.
