"Obstruction of Justice"
Original Air Date: 
December 11, 1997
Episode Number:   #79
Director:  Richard Thorpe
Writer:  Lance Gentile
Description:  
Jeanie meets with activists from the Gay and Lesbian Defense Fund on what is supposed to be her first day of unemployment. Due to their advice, she reports to work. Their tactics succeed, and Jeanie is reinstated by Anspaugh after his encounter with representatives from the fund. Al gets a job in Atlanta, but Jeanie chooses to remain in Chicago. Dr. Ellis West from Synergix Physician's Group moves boxes and computers into the e.r. A busy Greene asks Cynthia to take Rachel to the dentist. When they return, Greene and his ex-wife see that Cynthia has allowed Rachel (recurring guest star YVONNE ZIMA) to get a radical new haircut. A patient, Dwayne Jackson (HILL HARPER), insists that he's having a sickle-cell crisis, but Weaver believes he's faking in order to get drugs. She refuses to give him the Demerol he requests and releases him. However, when he returns, Ross treats him with the necessary pain-killers that his affliction requires. Corday questions her own motives when a 21-year-old female accident victim, Allison Beaumont (recurring guest star MICHELE MORGAN), goes into a coma after Corday elects to operate on her. The four-hour surgery was done to repair the victim's leg, which could have been amputated. Herb Spivak, Greene's civil rights attorney, enters the e.r. ready for his day of experiencing life as a doctor. During his shift with Greene, Herb actually saves a life. He also manages to get the lawsuit against Greene dropped. Carter's wealthy cousin, Chase (recurring guest star JONATHAN SCARFE), stops by for a quick visit. Soon afterwards, a drunk, beaten and handcuffed woman, Darlene Newman (MEGAN CAVANAGH - "A League of Their Own"), is brought to the e.r. by a cop, Bill Docherty (JOHN P. CONNOLLY). Carter believes the woman is a victim of spousal abuse and refuses to cooperate with the officer. Docherty arrests Carter, hauling him off to jail. Later, Del Amico posts Carter's bail.
