Jeff & Sara(h?) had planned on telling Hank they were in love, but neither
could do it.  Sarah ended up simply telling Hank that she could not marry
him, but Jeff agonizingly told her that it was Hank that truely loved her,
so she then accepted Hank's proposal for marraige.
As far as Jeff & Ginger, I have forgotten how or why they started dating,
but I seem to remember Ginger & Linda, who both had lost their boyfriends,
sitting in the drug store looking over the players on Jeff's team.  For
whatever reason, Jeff and Ginger started going out, with Jeff still hurt
over Sarah and Ginger looking for someone to marry.  Oh yeah, to those
who kindly reminded me that Hank & Sarah did tie the knot, I now remember
the wedding, where Sarah and Jeff had to dance together.  Well anyway,
Ginger wants to use her wedding dress, and Jeff can't wait to "express
his love" (poor expression, but I'm just trying to be polite).  When
Jeff finds out he has a shot at making the Cleveland Indians, he is
even more impatient since he has to go away for spring training.  From
here on I forget exactly what happens.

This is a    ***** B I G   S P O I L E R *****
so I'm not sure if you want to know, although I doubt if they will play
this episode again.

Since Al Cohn came to town to unionize Sloan Manufacturing, it has been
very tense between Hank, who is in management, and Linda, who is one of
the key union members, and of course Al himself.  Eventually the union
members were locked out after failed talks with Mr. Sloan, which deepened
the tension and affected almost everyone on the show.  Sarah was doing
laundry one day at the Metcalf's house, and had just started to go down
stairs when a shot was fired through their front window, missing Hank
and I believe Anne, who were in the kitchen, but then Hank realized it
had gone through the door leading down to the cellar, and found Sarah
had been shot and killed.  Oh yeah, in case you didn't know, Hank&Sarah
were living in Hank&Jeff's old room (with Jeff now living in the attic),
so they could help out with the mortgage since Anne lost her job at the
plant.
 
more ***** S P O I L E R ***** ( who did it . . . )
 
With the strike/lockout going on, everyone thought the gunfire was
either ment for Hank or Linda, each side blaming each other.  In fact
I believe it was someone just upset with the strike/lockout, since it
affected the entire city, and they only ment to show they were
frustrated.
