In a poignant episode, Henry has purchased tickets for the circus set for May 9th, but Cherie begins to act unusually, insisting she can't attend. Punky recalls that Cherie behaved similarly on the same date last year, prompting her to investigate. Following Cherie on May 9th, Punky uncovers that this date marks the anniversary of Cherie's parents' tragic car accident in 1981. Cherie struggles with guilt, believing their deaths were her fault since they were en route to pick her up from school. Punky confides in Betty, who reveals that Cherie has never discussed her parents and hasn’t even visited their graves, keeping her emotions tightly sealed within.
