Synopsis:

Hawkman recalls one of his past lives, where he was united with his true love for but a few moments. He was Jimmy Wright, a private detective, and the year was 1917. He came to St. Roch, where he ran into an old flame, Sheila Carr, who was now the current squeeze of mob boss Big Louie Moretti. When he finally traced Big Louie, he found that the gangster had engineered their meeting, claiming a past hatred of both Jimmy and Sheila. Helping Sheila escape, Jimmy suddenly realized who she was - the woman he has loved through all his many lives - and they were united for a few seconds before being gunned down by Moretti, their old enemy Hath-Set.
