Praying for the Flenorys[]
Pastor Swift is invited over to the Flenory's house for Terry's welcome home party following his shooting. The family form a circle with Pastor Swift leading the prayer, though Charles seems suspicious of the pastor, who clutches Lucille's hand in prayer. Pastor Swift reminds the Flenorys just how fortunate they are, as Terry not only survived, but is recovering. However, when the Pastor learns that Terry is in jeopardy of losing sight in one of his eyes, he recommends them to see his niece Karen, who just graduated from the University of Michigan Law. She'd be happy to look at their case of a contingency basis.[1]
