Jake talks to the Ravenwood elf. We learn that the other guy had been in Iraq, and oh snap – Jake was too. But that may or may not be true. Who knows? Who cares? They all make nice and the guy, whose name is Randy, explains about how they were hired by Homeland Security to protect the governor of Nebraska (who’s probably dead) and to help FEMA, which set up a tent city in a Wal-Mart parking lot. So bomb or no bomb, the good people of Kansas will not go without their fantastic savings. All the dead folks in the hospital couldn’t be moved and were thus killed by Ravenwood, which Randy did not approve of. He takes them to the doctor, who is up to his elbows in someone’s liver. Jake fails to grasp that the man is performing a major surgery and just demands some Cipro, the medicine that his father needs. Ooh, Jake, you’re contaminating the operating room. Bailey is going to rip you a new one. Then Ravenwood returns, hopefully with enough weapons to kill this merry band of nitwits.
“I am a wood sprite.”
Gray continues to interrogate Allison, and she blows up at him, accusing him of being a racist. She says she hates this stupid town, and runs off, teenagering all over the place. Back at the hospital, Jake is yelling “CIPRO!” repeatedly, as if he says it loud enough it’s going to jump off the shelves and into his waiting arms. Whoever the doctor was working on is now dead (thanks a lot, JAKE), and he runs off with them. There are a lot of people running around with guns for awhile, and somehow this is all really boring. The doctor informs Jake that he is wrong about the Cipro, and he really needs a different medicine instead.
Back at the house of INSANITY, Heather the Water Wench is freaking out because her crazy plan isn’t working. Just as she’s about to yell “NO WIRE HANGERS!” and slit Emily’s throat to feast upon the blood within, she discovers that the water in the aluminum bowl is freezing. She orders Emily to find anything made of metal, then happily screams “We’ve got ice!!” Yes, Heather. You have ice. Now put the bazooka down.
“There’s a sale on unicycles, parakeets, and lava lamps?!?
“I’ll eat them all!!!”
Eric the Wimp poses as a doctor to bamboozle the Ravenwood sprites. He better hope they don’t ask too many questions, lest they discover the only thing Eric has a degree in is pussyology. He pretends to help one of the bad guys, but instead steals the medicine he needs. Oh, Eric, you crafty fellow. But somehow the villain was able to see past this rock-solid wall of deceit and started shooting at him. There is yet another boring firefight. Jake and Eric use their combined IQ of 17 to somehow get away and speed off with the doctor, while noble Ravenfairy Randy takes the heat, because, he confesses, he killed a bunch of people too. Well, that’s nice, I guess.
Jimmy, Gray’s fat henchman, snoops around Hawkins’ basement and finds…an FBI badge! The horror! But Hawkins schools Gray for a little while, and says he lied because he doesn’t know who he can trust. He says he came to Jericho because there have been suspected terrorist activities around this area of Kansas and he is supposed to be conducting an undercover investigation. After agreeing to keep an “open line” between himself and Gray, Hawkins says it’s been a long day and kicks Gray out. Long day? Didn’t you just sit on your ass while other people rummaged through your house?
Jake and Eric rush home with the doctor in tow, and run into the Room Of Deathbed Confessions But Not From The One Who Is Dying. April asks if they got the Cipro, and when the doctor says the name of the better medicine he brought, she nods approvingly. April?! Did you know about this more effective medicine?! You’re so EVIL! The doctor gives him the injection, which by the way consisted of a glowing green toxic-looking substance. So, by “medicine” you really meant “plutonium”.
Radiation poisoning cures the flu, right?

I have to recommend dropping the McD's jokes and adding more paragraph breaks, but I vote for this one!

I agree about the paragraph break. It just needs set up a little better. That said, I pick this entry.

Hello, fellow Jericho fans/victims!
I'm with you guys on the paragraph breaks. I separated them more in the first recap, I guess I wanted to tighten things up in this one. But I agree it doesn't flow as well, and it will be better next time, if there is a next time.
Also, thank you for voting! You are all now invited over for Thanksgiving, wherein you will witness such colorful spectacles as a massive gravy spillage, acute bitterness over the outcome of the wishbone snapping, and Grandpa falling asleep into several pieces of pie.
