Director: Fred Gerber
Writer: Paul Manning
Description: With their wedding scheduled in two
weeks, Nurse Carol Hathaway (JULIANNA MARGULIES) and Dr. Taglieri (RICK
ROSSOVICH) bicker over small details. Hathaway also postpones writing
her wedding vows, claiming she has no time. As he displays more
competence in his work, John Carter (NOAH WYLE) gains confidence in
himself. He impresses the new head of the ER, Dr. Swift (MICHAEL
IRONSIDE), and even Dr. Peter Benton (ERIQ LA SALLE). But Benton behaves
coolly towards Carter when he learns, along with the rest of the ER,
that Carter's family is well-to-do. Benton tries to hide his attraction
to the married Jeanie Boulet (GLORIA REUBEN), who once took care of his
mother. Meanwhile, Dr. Susan Lewis (SHERRY STRINGFIELD) saves a young
male suicide victim, who crashed his car intentionally when his
girlfriend stopped dating him. Lewis also struggles to help her pregnant
sister, Chloe (KATHLEEN WILHOITE), who is not taking good care of
herself. After moving to Milwaukee, Dr. Mark Greene (ANTHONY EDWARDS)
tries to reconcile with his wife, Jennifer (CHRISTINE HARNOS).
Unfortunately, he continues to antagonize Dr. Swift and further
jeopardizes his attending job in the ER for next year. Dr. Douglas Ross
(GEORGE CLOONEY) must perform an embarrassing test on a dozen Catholic
school girls whom he suspects have bacterial meningitis. Later, he
coaches Jake's (ZACHARY BROWN) Little League baseball team, bringing him
closer to Jake's mother, Diane Leeds (LISA ZANE).
