VIEWERS TO SEE ORIGINAL WEST COAST TELECAST AND VICE-VERSA -- -- When a
documentary video crew invades the ER to follow Dr. Greene (Anthony
Edwards) and his co-workers through a typical day, everyone is
self-conscious at first, but gradually becomes accustomed to being
taped. While the cameras watch, Greene treats a musician with esophageal
cancer. Dr. Carter (Noah Wyle) is embarrassed when the cameras catch his
undignified encounter with a patient. Newly arrived from England,
surgical resident Dr. Elizabeth Corday (new series star Alex Kingston,
'Moll Flanders') confuses everyone with her unfamiliar medical terms.
Dr. Ross (George Clooney) and Nurse Hathaway (Julianna Margulies) treat
a toddler who appears to have been bitten by the family dog. Greene and
Dr. Del Amico (new series star Maria Bello, 'Mr. & Mrs. Smith')
treat a man who received a severe injury while trying to save a teenage
boy from a vicious gang beating. When Dr. Morgenstern (William H. Macy)
becomes suddenly ill while cameras are in the room, Dr. Weaver (Laura
Innes) is concerned about his privacy. Eriq La Salle and Gloria Reuben
also star.
