Plot

Lucy and Kevin fly to Crossroads, a small town in the middle of nowhere, to investigate a job opening for a minister. Once there, they learn that the small town is no ordinary place, and the residents have strict guidelines of residency that are not normal either. Kevin is also offered the opportunity to return to law enforcement as the town's sheriff. Back in Glenoak, Ruthie mistakenly assumes that Eric and Annie (or T-Bone) will pay for her tattoo removal, yielding Eric to finally let her have it and force her to get a job. Margaret decides to write Mac's paper for him, once she finally decides that she has feelings for him. While they share a kiss, Martin and Jane do as well, only after Sandy catches him lying about being unable to babysit Aaron.
