A KIDNAPPING UNFOLDS THROUGH THE EYES OF DEVASTATED PARENTS,
ON A REBROADCAST OF "WITHOUT A TRACE,"
THURSDAY, JUNE 8
Multiple Emmy Award Winner Laurie Metcalf ("Roseanne"), Matt Craven ("Crimson Tide") and Andrea Bowen ("Desperate Housewives") Guest Star
"A Day in the Life" -- When a 15-year-old boy is kidnapped, the race to find him unfolds through the eyes of his parents, who watch helplessly as Jack and the team work to uncover his whereabouts, on a rebroadcast of WITHOUT A TRACE, Thursday, June 8 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Jeannot Szwarc directed the episode written by Hank Steinberg, the series' creator and one of the series' executive producers. (Originally broadcast 11/17/05)
Multiple Emmy Award winner Laurie Metcalf ("Roseanne") guest stars as the missing boy's mother, Matt Craven ("Crimson Tide") as his father and Andrea Bowen ("Desperate Housewives") as one of the boy's friends.
Following Susan (Metcalf) and Larry (Craven) Hopkins' desperate call to the authorities when they realize their son, Shawn, missed his curfew, the team's involvement ends up adding to the Hopkins' feelings of powerlessness, angst and frustration, especially when they're questioned as potential suspects in Shawn's disappearance. They begin to resent the team for the seemingly slow pace of their investigation and for not relaying every twist, turn and procedure involved in the search. Additionally, the Hopkins begin to turn against each other when the team's findings make it clear that Shawn has been involved in much more than they ever knew or imagined.
