NOTE: In an unusual move, an ending was filmed to wrap up the cliffhanger left unresolved when Fox cancelled the series. In the new version, which aired overseas and on the E! cable channel, Grayson was shot and killed as she dove atop her son. Julie accepted a marriage proposal from Craig, and Hillary decided to shut down the agency. Carrie apparently remained trapped in Central America, with no happy resolution for her baffling plot twist.
