# Title Original airdate Summary
1 Pilot July 16, 2006 Angela finds a millionaire's missing wife and exposes this woman's sinister plan to launder her hubby's money. Romance is in the works between Angela and new guy Peter, but her trust issues are definitely getting in the way. And a visit to Angela's pops in prison leads her to the family's time capsule...but it's vanished.
2 Eyes For Windows July 23, 2006 Angela saved a news anchor that supposedly had a crazed stalker but she wound up abandoning her date Peter for most of her friend's wedding. Between getting ditched and dealing with her suspicious nature, he gave Angela the boot. On the family front, her trouble-making brother, Jerry, finally turned up.
3 In God's Eyes July 30, 2006 Angela usually has no problems interrogating witnesses and suspects, but she finds it challenging to question a priest covering up for someone else. She still cracks the case. When she visits her estranged Mom in prison, Angela discovers that she's super sick and needs her daughter's bone marrow to survive.
4 Eyes Of The Father August 6, 2006 Angela gives her Mom the bone marrow she needs for a transplant and ends up meeting a cute medical intern named Dylan; they have instant chemistry. Angela also catches her boss Gene and her Mom in a discreet meeting. Turns out, they'd been in contact for quite some time; Gene has clearly been keeping secrets.
5 Undercover Eyes August 13, 2006 Angela heads back to high school. She goes undercover as a substitute teacher to bust a drug ring. She almost gets herself killed, but is rescued by her partner Leo just in time. Afterward, Angela tries to make amends with boss Gene, even though he still isn't being totally honest about his visits to her Mom, Lydia.
6 Political Eyes August 20, 2006 Angela spends her birthday searching for a missing opera singer. She does get quality time with her new guy Dylan, who gets her a nice birthday present. But she gets a better gift from her brother Jerry; the family time capsule. Inside it is a photo of their parents with a mystery man.
7 Open Your Eyes August 27, 2006 The team faces one of their scariest assignments yet they must recover a deadly virus that is stolen and held for ransom. Angela finally meets the mystery man from her parent's past, who she spotted in an old photo. He claims her Mom and Dad are innocent, but is murdered before he has the chance to prove it.
8 Blue-Eye Blues September 10, 2006 Angela helps free a teenager from her captor, but the job doesn't end there: the victim is still under her kidnapper's spell. Luckly, Angela stops her from turning into a criminal too. In a radical move, Angela finally decides to trust her boyfriend Dylan. Bad idea, since he's been secretly spying on her for boss Gene.
