Episode #8: Life Out of Balance originally aired January 10, 2001.

ABC moves the series to Wednesday night, where the first episode on its new day plays to the show's strong suits: sensitivity, honesty and believability.

In the primary plot, Lily (Sela Ward) tells Rick (Billy Campbell) that she might be pregnant. His reaction---confusion and alarm tinged with dismay---gives her pause and causes their ardor to chill. As Lily confides to her sister Judy (Marin Hinkle), "I'm not sure [Rick's] who I thought he was." In another storyline, Rick's recalcitrant son, Eli (Shane West), begins to fall for Grace's rebellious friend, Carla (Audrey Anderson). And their ardor intensifies. Zoe: Meredith Deane. Coach Herchow: Pat Skipper__tvguide.com (December 27, 2000)
