Description: Anspaugh tells Greene to publish an
article in a medical journal in order to compete with Weaver for a
teaching position at the hospital. However, Greene cannot even maintain
his commitments to the emergency room and to his daughter, Rachel, who
develops social problems at school. Later, Greene consults with Dr.
Pomerantz about a woman who wants surgery so badly that she eats some
surgical equipment. He decides this might make an interesting article.
Carter wants Anspaugh to perform delicate surgery on a patient, but
Anspaugh refuses because he doesn't believe that the patient will
survive the surgery. Carter convinces Hicks to perform the surgery
without telling her about Anspaugh's refusal. When Carter's deception is
exposed, he is placed on probation. The patient survives. Meanwhile,
Hathaway continues to undermine Doyle's authority. Benton lies to get
Carla's confidential hospital files and learns that she has gestational
diabetes. Fischer plans to take Jeanie out of town for the weekend, but
she hesitates to accept his offer. Jeanie treats a female AIDS patient
who attempts suicide and eventually dies. Instead of going with Fischer,
Jeanie visits Al and finds comfort with him. Ross treats a high school
student who insists on attending her school dance. She needs gallbladder
surgery. Ross orders an ambulance to drive her to the dance and return
her to the hospital that night for surgery.
