Description: Dr. Susan Lewis (SHERRY
STRINGFIELD) ends up delivering her sister's baby girl. Despite Chloe's
(KATHLEEN WILHOITE) abuse of her body during her pregnancy, the baby
seems healthy. Lewis is relieved that Chloe and the baby will go live
with Chloe and Lewis' parents. Unfortunately, their mother, Cookie
(VALERIE PERRINE - "Superman"), decides that this is not a
good idea and insists that Lewis make other arrangements. Meanwhile, Dr.
Mark Greene (ANTHONY EDWARDS) treats a young girl, Joanie, who shows
early signs of heart trouble that may require open heart surgery. Greene
offers a sub-I internship in the ER to Carter, who declines the offer in
favor of a sub-I in surgery with Dr. Peter Benton (ERIC LA SALLE).
Unfortunately, Carter later learns that Benton accepted another
candidate for surgery instead. Carter considers telling Greene that he's
changed his mind, only to discover that Greene found someone else. While
Taglieri and Hathaway's bickering about their wedding worsens, Diane
Leeds (LISA ZANE) and Dr. Douglas Ross' (GEORGE CLOONEY) relationship
becomes increasingly serious. However, when Diane asks Ross to move in
with her and Jake, Ross gets scared and retreats to his former lover,
Linda Farrell (ANDREA PARKER). Diane finds the two of them coming out of
his apartment together. She leaves angrily after Ross apologizes,
admitting the truth. Finally, Benton tries to save a teenage boy impaled
by an iron bar and later operates on two feuding female gang members. In
the midst of this busy day, he learns that his mother has died. He finds
solace with the married Jeanie Boulet (GLORIA REUBEN), and the two
finally share a kiss.
