Leo Waters (LaPaglia) is an idealistic architect and patriarch of an upper middle class suburban Chicago family. Tonya Neeley (Davis) is a pragmatic activist who is trying to keep her family together while living in one of the city's most drug and crime-infested public housing projects. As part of her ongoing campaign to have the projects torn down and decent housing built in its place, Tonya decides that the one signature she needs on her petition is that of the projects' original architect, Leo Waters. Rossellini, Panettiere and Stan turn in powerful supporting performances as Waters' wife and children. watch
In October, CBS' Without a Trace (Sundays at 10 pm/ET) notched its 100th episode.
