I've just gotten both volumes of Real Adventures' first season (should be getting here tomorrow) and was wondering where to find a certain episode that holds a strong memory. In it, a good fatherly man loses his daughter at some point in the past, who could be confused as a blonde twin to Jessie. He comes back and once he sees Jess, he believes she is his daughter and tries capturing her away from her family, eventually being defeated still under the belief she is her. From the descriptions of the two TV movies on wikipedia, I'm assuming this story was in Real Adventures, yet I can't find any trace of it in any episode descriptions.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Having gone through the whole first season, I found which ep this was, "Ezekiel Rage". The order of Real Adventures is a bit hard to figure out, considering designs of Benton constantly shift with his hair color, not to mention the continuity being a bit muddled in Rage's first two appearances (his origin ep being AFTER the first ep where we see him). For the first season, here's the DVD and air-date order:
Volume 1 Disc 1: "The Darkest Fathoms" -- Benton black hair "Escape to Questworld" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep (Origin) "In the Realm of the Condor" ~ Benton black hair "Rage's Burning Wheel" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World seg, Rage ep (NOT Origin) "Noovu's Last Journey" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World seg "Manhattan Maneater" ~ Benton black hair "East of Zanzibar" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World seg Volume 1 Disc 2: "Assault on Questworld" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep "Ezekiel Rage" ~ Benton grey shades, Rage ep (Origin) "Alien in Washington" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure "Return of the Anasazi" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World seg "The Alchemist" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World seg "Trouble on the Colorado" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep
Volume 2 Disc 1: "In the Wake of Mary Celeste" ~ Benton grey shades "Amok" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World seg "Besieged in Paradise" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep "The Spectre of the Pine Barrens" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World seg "Heroes" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep "The Balled of Belle Bonnet" ~ Benton grey shades "In the Darkness of the Moon" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World seg "The Secret of the Moal" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep "Expedition to Khumbu" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World adventure Volume 2 Disc 2: "Ice Wall Burn" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World seg "Future Rage" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World adventure, Rage ep "Alligators and the Okeechobee Vikings" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World seg "To Bardo and Back" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep
Now here's my custom chronological order to make it all a bit more reasonable to follow as a cohesive season:
Volume 1 Disc 1: "The Darkest Fathoms" -- Benton black hair "In the Realm of the Condor" ~ Benton black hair "Noovu's Last Journey" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World seg "Manhattan Maneater" ~ Benton black hair "East of Zanzibar" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World seg Volume 1 Disc 2: "Return of the Anasazi" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World seg "Ezekiel Rage" ~ Benton grey shades, Rage ep (Origin) "Alien in Washington" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure Volume 1 Disc 1: "Escape to Questworld" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep (Origin) "Rage's Burning Wheel" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World seg, Rage ep (NOT Origin) Volume 1 Disc 2: "Assault on Questworld" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep "The Alchemist" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World seg "Trouble on the Colorado" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep
Volume 2 Disc 1: "In the Wake of Mary Celeste" ~ Benton grey shades "Amok" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World seg "Besieged in Paradise" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep "Heroes" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep "The Balled of Belle Bonnet" ~ Benton grey shades "In the Darkness of the Moon" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World seg "The Secret of the Moal" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep "The Spectre of the Pine Barrens" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World seg "Expedition to Khumbu" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World adventure Volume 2 Disc 2: "Alligators and the Okeechobee Vikings" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World seg "Future Rage" ~ Benton black hair, Features Quest World adventure, Rage ep "Ice Wall Burn" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World seg "To Bardo and Back" ~ Benton grey shades, Features Quest World adventure, Surd ep
Season 2: "The Mummies of Malenque" "Rock of Rages" "Bloodlines" "Race Against Danger (aka Race Against Death)" "The Dark Mountain" "Cyberswitch" "Undersea Urgency" "Nemesis" "DNA Doomsday" "Ghost Quest" "Nuclear Netherworld" "Eclipse" "Without a Trace" "Village of the Doomed" "Dark Sentinel" "Other Space" "Digital Doublecross" "Thoughtscape" "The Bangalore Falcon" "Diamonds and Jade" "The Edge of Yesterday" "The Haunted Sonata" "General Winter" "More Than Zero" "The Robot Spies" "Night of the Zinja"

In general this is an area of argument amongst the fans of the HB library because this problem happened in other shows too, where continuity is a funny word where sometimes it counted and other times it didn't.
Several shows like this one were made in a certain order which are what some consider the correct order, however some where aired in seperate orders like as you see here.
The origin episode of Ezekiel Rage should have came before the Burning Wheel episode but that's not how they aired them. And the general DVD working concept is to do them "as aired"
Some similar problems are present in the last aired episode of the Flintstones season 3. It was completed before a lot of the later episodes as it has no Pebbles at all, which some people find weird they kept it last on the set.
The Smurfs season 1 sets also got mixed as they returned them to production order instead of aired order which is technically not the way the story flows sometimes in the introduction of new characters.
But again do remember this is HB where all the way from the 50s to the 90s and even into WB's continuations of the series, sometimes they just on purpose didn't use continuity. After we are expected to believe they all operate in one big universe since HB loves crossovers (as do I) but there are more than enough holes around to assume the time space continuum in this world is totally shot let alone if they are in correct order lol
I refuse to argue on IMDB until the general populous actually uses their brains
