Number: #5
Director: Mimi
Leder
Writer: Paul Manning
Description: Dr. Susan Lewis (SHERRY
STRINGFIELD) tries to convince an overstressed salesman to relax more,
before his ulcer gets worse. While Drs. Benton (ERIQ LA SALLE) and
Langworthy (recurring guest star TYRA FERRELL - "Boyz N the
Hood") argue over a fatal car crash victim, medical student John
Carter (NOAH WYLE) accidentally contacts the wrong parents to inform
them of their loss. Benton is competing with Langworthy for chief
surgical resident and later disappoints his brother-in-law, Walter (VING
RHAMES), by forgetting an important family obligation. Dr. Douglas
Ross (GEORGE CLOONEY) watches over a young boy (ANDREW J. FERCHLAND)
whose schizophrenic mother (ANNABELLA PRICE) is admitted to the hospital
after she brings her son in to have his hearing checked. She complains
that her son cannot hear the same voices that she can hear. Ross
is still romantically attracted to Nurse Carol Hathaway (JULIANNA
MARGULIES). Unfortunately, she is already romantically involved with
surgeon Dr. John Taglieri (RICK ROSSOVICH). She makes it clear to Ross
that she does not want a relationship with him because of his lack of
commitment when they were together before. Dr. Mark Greene
(ANTHONY EDWARDS) contends with a woman whose pacemaker is reacting
strangely, causing her to convulse every time the telephone rings. Dr.
Greene's wife has a job interview in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. A
married man who suffers a mild heart attack checks into the
hospital--handcuffed to his girlfriend (PATRICIA HEALY).
