14th Episode: "Hurricane"
Aired week of Feb 3, 1997

NASA and the Astronaut Training Program brace themselves against a ferocious hurricane heading straight for the Cape.

Plot: (pasted from the official "The Cape" Web Site)

As storm clouds build and pick up speed across the Atlantic Ocean, Emergency Preparedness Officer Del Gibbons, Harry Krause and Bull ignore the National Hurricane Center's assurance that Hurricane Elana will turn before hitting the Florida coast. Fearing the worst, Bull orders the Atlantis Shuttle back to the Vehicle Assembly Building and begins to set up an Emergency Operations center. Working all night to prepare Kennedy Space Center and coordinate the evacuation of local residents, Bull and Andrea Wyler are drawn closer together when the storm dredges up painful memories of Andrea's childhood experiences with Louisiana hurricanes.

Returning to Florida to collect her son, Joanna has decided to bring Noah on location for her next photo assignment -- and thus, take him away from his newly-found father, Riles. Forced to wait the storm out together at Jack's house, tempers flare as Jack and Joanna fight for custody of Noah.

Disappointed that his favorite performer's concert is scrubbed due to Elana, Peter cannot believe his eyes when he spots Edgar "Free Ride" Winter hanging out at the Moonshot. Helping Sweets get the bar hurricane-ready, Peter, D.B., Zeke, Reggie and Barbara are stranded in the bar as Elana rips the pier from the shore.
