Crisp starts a fire in the library as a distraction to kidnap his son, but uses him as a hostage when Kimble arrives. Just as Crisp declares his intention to take his son away and prepares to shoot Kimble, Kimble's ferret, which was hiding in Cullen Jr's shirt, bites Crisp in the neck, allowing Cullen Jr to escape; in pain, Crisp accidentally shoots Kimble in the leg, causing Kimble to fatally shoot him in return. Outside, Eleanor injures Phoebe with her car before going inside and discovering Crisp dead; she wounds Kimble in the shoulder, but Phoebe appears and knocks her unconscious with a baseball bat. Eleanor is then arrested and the unconscious Kimble is hospitalized with Phoebe, with both of them making a full recovery. Phoebe returns to the police force in Los Angeles, while Kimble decides to retire, staying in Astoria to become a kindergarten teacher at the school full-time. Rachel joins him and the two share a kiss while everyone cheers.
