Gerard tries to use this to lure Kimble out into the open. Arriving in Los Angeles to be sheltered by an old family acquaintance, stenographer Jean Carlisle, Kimble needs to verify that Johnson is the man he is looking for, but someone wires a bail bondsman money to bail Johnson out. Kimble and Jean find the bail bondsman dead, after the bondsman tried to convince Johnson to be part of a blackmail scheme. Kimble goes through documents and is shocked to see who sent the money. He intends to confront this person; at the same time, Kimble and Jean begin to acknowledge feelings for each other. As Kimble prepares to leave, Gerard catches him and takes him into custody. Johnson hops on a train while Kimble and Gerard make their way back home to Stafford, Indiana. Kimble and Gerard are on a train heading to their Indiana hometown, the chase over at last. Kimble reveals that the person who sent Johnson's bail money merely used the name of Leonard Taft, his brother-in-law. Gerard gives Kimble 24 hours to verify the one-armed man in Stafford. Johnson calls the Tafts, demanding that they meet with him; they dismiss it as a crank call, but neighbor and Stafford planning commissioner Lloyd Chandler goes to the meeting. Dr. Kimble and Lt. Gerard find tell-tale evidence of Johnson's presence, and Jean Carlisle arrives at the Tafts reuniting with Richard Kimble.

Gerard the story, and they catch up to Johnson at a deserted amusement park, where Lloyd Chandler plans to kill Johnson in order to keep the secret that holds the key.
