Trouble dismissing popover when deep inside nested tableview

Question

I have an iPad program that has the following structure:

Viewcontroller VC1 VC 1 declares UIPopover controller inside Popover controller I call a Nav controller which calls a TableView Controller TC1

TC1 pushes to a second Tableviewer Controller TC2

When the user selects a row in the table I want to dismiss the Popup.

Here is the code inside TC2:

• (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {

  [popOverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];

}

I'm getting an error popOverController not declared....

So I figure that since I'm inside the Tableviewcontroller object it doesn't know about the popOverController.

What I don't have the first clue about is how to get a message back to the popOverController delegate (if that's even right) to send the dismiss command.

This appears to be a well versed question on the internet, but no one seems to be doing drill down tableviews inside a popup so I can't find an answer anywhere.

Help?
