"Returning Japanese"
Episode Season6 No.20/21
Original Airdate: 5/12/2002

While watching a sentimental TV special on WWII, Topsy quietly dies on Cotton. 
To deal with Topsy's death and the anxiety he feels from post-war stress, 
Hank takes his dad to visit John Redcorn's seat lodge. After envisioning all 
the Japanese men he killed in the war, Cotton somehow gains a conscience and 
decides to right the wrong by travelling to Japan to apologize to the men's families. 

Peggy lands a free trip for the family to Japan by selling a travel story to 
the Arlen Bystander on Cotton's apology. When Bobby finds Cotton looking at 
a wallet photo of a Japanese woman, Cotton tells him the woman is the widow 
of a man he killed. Hank, who was initially skeptical of Cotton's newfound 
sensitivity, now believes that Cotton has turned an emotional corner.

Hank decides that it's important that he and Peggy and Bobby accompany Cotton 
on his mission, even if it means going to Japan. After the Hills arrive in Japan, 
Cotton slips and reveals that the widow in the photo was not a widow, 
but Cotton's post-war girlfriend, Michiko. Hank, furious about the deception, 
refuses to talk to Cotton, even though Peggy points out that the situation is 
actually quite romantic: after killing all the Japanese people, he found the 
courage to love one. Somewhat touched, Hank takes Peggy and Bobby to Michiko's
 apartment to find Cotton. When the door swings open, inside stands a Japanese man
 who looks a lot like Hank - it's his half-brother! 

Cotton, who is dumbfounded that he fathered another child, names his newfound son, 
Japanese Hank. Japanese Hank tells the Hills that his mother is out but invites 
them to dinner. At dinner, Cotton is informed that the Emperor has agreed to 
attend the reconciliation ceremony between the Japanese and Cotton and the 
other American vets. Cotton makes a heartfelt toast to forgiveness and the 
unification of his diverse family. But a drunk Japanese Hank blurts out 
how much he hates Cotton for abandoning him, especially in a society that 
frowns on mixed children.

Incensed, Cotton tells everyone that he recalls why he went to war in the 
first place and runs away. Hank, fearing Cotton will do something at the ceremony
 that will cause an international incident, persuades a hostile Japanese Hank to 
help him find their father. They find Cotton at the reconciliation and implore 
him to behave. The half-brothers express their admiration for each other and 
Cotton is touched when Japanese Hank calls him "father." Cotton is so moved, 
he decides not to hawk a loogie on the Emperor, as he originally intended.
