Gregori J. Martin's ambitious, limited-run, The Bay spinoff Far From The Bay concluded its arc this week with a star-studded finale. Peter Garrett (Kristos Andrews) has finally found the mental hospital where his adopted mother Claire Andrews (Marie Wilson) has been residing since she went cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs a decade earlier.  

That's daytime supervillain Kimberlin Brown (The Young and the Restless, Port Charles, All My Children) as Claire's doctor. Mary Beth Evans also reprises the role of Peter's biological mother Sara Garrett in a powerful flashback sequence (also featuring Punky Brewster and Family Matters alum Cherie Jones).
