Description: When Jeanie learns that Al's medicine is
not benefiting him much, she helps him get accepted into a new drug
study conducted at the hospital by Fischer. Fischer learns that Jeanie
and Al are seeing a lot of each other. Eventually, Jeanie and Al have
sex. Benton acts as Carla's partner when she takes a birthing class, but
he is unreliable and too strict, so she tells him that she wants another
partner. Later, she is admitted to the hospital due to complications in
her pregnancy and must remain lying down. Benton and Carter assist on a
kidney transplant from a brother to a sister. The brother suffers
complications, but the surgery is a success. Later, Carter astounds
Benton by leaving a discussion among prestigious surgeons to check on
the transplant patients. After his mother gets a bill from the hospital,
Chris Law threatens  Dr.
Greene. Chris' brother, a black student and innocent bystander shot
during a drug deal, recently died in the emergency room while the white
drug dealer was successfully treated. Greene also has hostile encounters
with a doomsayer and the father of an injured drum majorette (HEATHER
MATARAZZO - "Welcome to the Dollhouse"), who wants his
daughter to have unnecessary plastic surgery. Later in the hospital
bathroom, Greene survives a brutal attack by an unknown assailant.
Meanwhile, everyone wonders who is writing the romance novel found under
the admissions desk and less-than-loosely based on members of the
emergency room staff. Ross transfers his obsession with sex to golf.
Greene learns that Doyle is a lesbian. And a new emergency pediatrics
intern, Anna Del Amico (recurring guest star MARIA BELLO - "Mr.
& Mrs. Smith"), joins the staff. Ross is somewhat intimidated
by her.
