Description: The nurses get a new contract, and
Hathaway is reinstated after an investigation proves her not negligent
in a patient's death. The nurses belatedly realize that she is a good
manager. On her first day back at work, Hathaway leaves early to take
the medical school admissions test. Benton tells his pregnant
girlfriend, Carla, that he wants to be a supportive father. She informs
him that she wants nothing from him. She believes Benton only cares
about himself. Later, Benton remorsefully confides to Hicks that he was
too concerned with his own career to care about Gant's feelings.
Greene's 37-year-old Down's syndrome patient, Louise (LOUISE C. BROWN),
needs a heart transplant. In the past, hospital therapist and transplant
committee member Dr. Nina Pomerantz recommended not to put Louise on a
waiting list. Greene argues with Pomerantz, but the patient's elderly
mother supports the decision because she does not want her daughter to
outlive her and be left alone. Meanwhile, Jeanie wants to do something
spontaneous and asks Fischer to attend an opera with her. He treats her
to a picnic in very cold weather. He suggests they make love, but Jeanie
wants to let the relationship develop slowly. Cystic fibrosis patient
Jad Houston signs a "do not resuscitate" order upon reaching
age 18. Ross removes him from the respirator, and Jad survives. Also,
Carter disagrees with Anspaugh's diagnosis and is proven correct,
impressing Anspaugh.
