The arc of Harry's story takes him from coaching basketball to marriage and then running his wife's family hardware store. Their lives are the unglamorous lives of working class people. He has a daughter Dayna and a sick child who dies of Leukemia. On one of their many visits to the hospital Dayna finds a magazine with a picture of Jodi. Harry sees the picture but has no idea that this is the same Judy he befriended years ago. When her husband dies leaving her all his wealth in addition to her fame, Jodi feels she needs to seek the advice of someone who cared for her when she had nothing-no beauty, no fame and no wealth. She has the head of corporate security find Harry. Jodi goes to Smalsville to find Harry so he can help her regain her balance. But she cannot totally run away from the world she must learn to deal with.
