I don't remember the scene you are referring to, but I would guess it was removed to assist the TV stations in editing the film down to a 2 hour format. Nevertheless, the last TBS showing was a 2 hour and 20 minute (with commercials) showing.

Heading toward Siberia. They stole a plane. Other planes heading out after them. I enjoy the self-contained episodes, very much but I could do without Rabb's search for his long-lost father. Too darned many shows out there with main characters 35-40 seeking their birth parents or information about their birth parents. I wouldn't say that Rabb is consumed with the whole thing, though, at least not ordinarily. ___ * OFFLINE 1.58 --- Silver Xpress Mail System 5.03M1 * Origin: Salata * info@salata.com * 310-543-0439 33.6k (1:102/125) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 191 FILM Ref: FA300013 Date: 05/25/98 From: MAUREEN GOLDMAN Time: 09:03am \/To: SAMUEL LEE (Read 0 times) Subj: more subtlty On 05-23-98 Samuel Lee wrote to DOC LOGGER...
