 One of the very best of the "Afterschool Special" series, effectively making the point that running away from responsibility is a risky business: it tends to jump up and bite you at the most inconvenient times. It all begins one stormy night:Bobbie (Linda Grovenor), driving a florist s delivery van, is trying to read street signs in the downpour when she accidentally knocks down a young boy on a bike. She picks the injured boy up and takes him to the nearest hospital, then panic overcomes her and she flees. She tells no one about the accident (although family and friends sense that something s wrong), and after days of letting the  terrible secret  eat at her she s on the verge of a breakdown. She finally confides in her boyfriend Seth (Michael Biehn in an early role), who turns out to be carrying a guilty secret of his own; with his support she confesses all to her family and the authorities, and goes to visit the young accident victim in the hospital.
