Description: Ross tries to
repay his father's business associate, Karen, after his father leaves
with a lot of her money. Ross asks his mother, Sarah Ross (PIPER LAURIE
- "Carrie," "Twin Peaks"), for help with the
situation. Weaver tells Greene that she will consider supporting Lewis
for a position as chief resident if Greene will help Weaver become an
emergency room attending physician. Later, Greene agrees to care for the
children of a reformed prostitute, Loretta, for one night while she
undergoes more cancer surgery. Iris and Greene continue their
relationship. When Shep is investigated for getting into a fight with
the brother of a gunshot victim, Hathaway reluctantly lies to protect
Shep because she did not witness the entire incident. She worries about
Shep's mental state. Carter learns some new basketball trivia from a
10-year-old female basketball player who needs a liver transplant, which
prevents her from playing in a tournament. Jeanie's estranged husband,
Al, thinks he has influenza, but Jeanie must give him worse news: He
contracted HIV. Jeanie must also undergo an HIV test herself. Lewis, who
is consulting a therapist because she misses Susie, overreacts when a
young mother brings her obviously abused child to the emergency room.
Weaver must subdue Lewis. Police officer Al Grabarsky (recurring guest
star MIKE GENOVESE) and nurse Lydia Wright (recurring guest star ELLEN
CRAWFORD), who have been dating for some time, get engaged to be
married. Series star ANTHONY EDWARDS directed the episode.
