In the conclusion of a two-part story, Rev. Alden (
Dabbs Greer) finds a foster home for the orphaned Cooper children. Charles (
Michael Landon) has a bad feeling about this setup -- a feeling that is borne out when it is revealed that the children's new guardians merely want to use them as cheap labor. The kids run away, whereupon Charles finds them -- agreeing to adopt them if it is humanly possible.
Jason Bateman and Missy Francis join the regular cast as James and Cassandra in this, the final episode of
