Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In the conclusion of a two-part story (originally telecast as a single two-hour episode), every member of the Walton family pitches in to help Elizabeth (Kami Cotler) recuperate from her crippling accident--especially Jim-Bob (David W. Harper) and Ben (Eric Scott), who feel responsible for her plight. Though the fractures have healed, Elizabeth has sustained nerve damage that may prevent her from ever again walking properly. The crisis becomes all the more pronounced when the Baldwin sisters, hoping to cheer the girl up, give her a pony.
