time-specific passive checks

I've got a process that rusn a few times a day, not at regular
intervals. I need to allow it to send in passive checks, and I need
Nagios to make sure the job is run within ~60 minutes of its scheduled
times.

Example: 

Job runs at 03:00, 14:00, 16:00. 

If at 04:00, it hasn't heard from the 03:00 run, I need a page to go
out.

I've tried setting up time periods, i.e., a time period of 04:00-04:30,
thinking that the passive result from 03:00 will be processed, and at
04:00, Nagios will check and see it was there.

Unfortunately, when it's outside of the time period, Nagios doesn't
appear to handle the passive check, so when it hits the time period, I
get a page. :)

Any ideas for a simple configuration to handle tasks like these would be
appreciated. :)
