Description: It's Lewis' last day at work before
she moves to Arizona, and Greene still hasn't told her that he's
enamored with her. While on the mobile clinic, Anspaugh's traveling care
center for the poor, Ross allows a streetwise 14-year-old girl, Charlie
(recurring guest star KIRSTEN DUNST - "Interview with the
Vampire," "Jumanji"), to forge the signature of a baby's
mother for a vaccination after lab tests indicate the baby needs
treatment and Ross cannot locate the mother. Meanwhile, the four members
of the Herlihy family, who were involved in a terrible car wreck, are
all discharged. Benton still feels guilty about his judgment concerning
the Herlihy infant. Suspecting a conspiracy to force employees to quit
before they can collect their pensions, Hathaway asks the nursing
administrator to stop moving the nurses around to different  departments
where they are less qualified. The administrator agrees to a compromise
in exchange for Hathaway serving on a hospital committee. Nurse Lydia
Wright (recurring guest star ELLEN CRAWFORD) ends her marriage
engagement to policeman Alfred "Al" Grabarsky (recurring guest
star MIKE GENOVESE) because he keeps delaying the wedding. Devastated,
he marries her in an impromptu ceremony at the hospital. Jeanie's
husband finally gives her the signed divorce papers--as well as their
house and car. He explains that not only does she deserve them, but his
actions will enable him to qualify for a state health program for the
poor. Doyle causes trouble by calling the police to charge a nine-months
pregnant woman with the attempted murder of her fetus. Also, Keaton
tries to train a skeptical Benton to visualize the body's interior
before operating. Keaton continues her secret liaison with Carter.
Benton and his former girlfriend Carla become romantic in an empty
operating room. Finally, a surprise farewell party for Lewis is canceled
due to an influx of patients from a car accident, and Lewis leaves
quietly. Ross persuades Greene to tell Lewis how he feels. Greene rushes
to the train station and stops Lewis from boarding a train. He
breathlessly tells her that he loves her. However, Lewis' feelings
toward Greene are those of a loving friendship, and she leaves.
