At a rehab facility back in the US, he meets volunteer Kiki Wilson (Jennifer Aniston), who take a particular interest in him. After an introduction from Cmdr Hartig (Norman Snow) he encounters dastardly orderly Holt (Gene Lythgow) before being taken to his shared room, where he meets Sgt Billy Johnson (Michael Boatman), a fellow veteran paralysed at war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<p>When Miller&#8217;s wife, Julie (Judith Hoag) tells Sam she&#8217;s leaving for another man, it seems he might have failed in his objective. However, a greater wrong presents itself when a new electric wheelchair presents Johnson with the opportunity to end his own life, if Sam can&#8217;t intervene in time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<br>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Nowhere to Run<\/em> was directed by Alan J.
