Todd escaped from prison and sought revenge on Nora.

Nora faced a life-threatening crisis of her own when she was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor that required immediate surgery. She reluctantly opted to go under the knife, but without informing Bo! Just before the operation, Bo found out the truth and raced to her side, where he stayed throughout the ordeal. Afterward her surgery, Nora temporarily lost her eyesight. Vowing to care for her, Bo took Nora away to a beach house while she recovered. What neither knew was that Todd had earlier escaped prison and followed behind them to exact revenge upon Nora. While Bo was out picking up groceries, Todd quietly emerged inside the house; terrorizing a sightless Nora with ominous sounds and innuendo to let her know that she wasn�t alone.

After making his presence known to Nora, Todd viciously attacked and tried to rape her. Nora was able to thwart his attempt when she bashed him over the head with a lamp, and jabbed a pair a scissors in his chest, which only made Todd angrier. Bo, who heard about Todd's escape on the radio, raced back to the beach house in time to wrestled Todd to the ground and chain him up. While Bo called the police, Todd managed to escape and slithered into the night!
