The Breaking of the Habit

"" is the one-hundred-ninth episode of.

Kimble stumbles into a police roadblock and suffers a bullet wound in the leg, but he outmaneuvers police and jumps into the back of a large truck heading to Sacramento. He looks up a Catholic school for girls and telephones inquiring about Sister Veronica (Eileen Heckart), who is the school’s principal.

Sister Veronica has her hands full with budget concerns and two uncooperative students - Vicky (Adrienne Hayes), who is promiscuous (her way of getting back at her mother who ran out on the family) and Marie Dormond (Heather North), who harasses the school custodian for alcohol.

When Kimble arrives he needs Sister Veronica’s help. Kimble had acquired photographic evidence that Fred Johnson is a numbers runner in Tarleton, some two hours away. But as grateful as Veronica remains for Kimble’s past help to her she has her hands full with the school.

Things though get worse. Vicky runs away (which she has done in the past) and after trying to harass Kimble Marie Dormond learns from a newspaper who he is and calls the police. Kimble successfully evades the police and Veronica finally decides to help him to Tarleton - and though their search for Fred Johnson finds he’s already fled the town, the good Sister does wind up getting the wayward Vicky back
