Walker Gets a Flashback Episode in "A Tale of Two Families" Synopsis ✖ The CW has released the official synopsis for "A Tale of Two Families," the May 20 episode of Walker, which will see the series flash back to the days immediately before and after Emily's death and the events that kicked off the pilot. It seems likely, but is not fully confirmed by the synopsis, that Genevieve Padalecki will return to reprise her role as Emily in the episode, and that eagle-eyed fans may be able to pick up on some clues that had heretofore been missing regarding what happened and why. We'll also see how the family dealt with the loss before Cordell took off for his undercover assignment.
