to Know You"
Original Air Date: May 20, 1999
Episode
Number: #114
Director: Jonathan
Kaplan
Writer: Lydia Woodward
Description: A distracted Lucy fumbles with her notes
and appears uninformed when she performs hospital rounds with Romano,
Carter and others. Off Ritalin for two days, she displays her ineptness
with a child patient in the psychiatric department. She resumes taking
the Ritalin. Carter's former protigi, Antoine Bell, comes to the
emergency room with minor injuries. His wallet was stolen. He later
returns--beaten--having retaliated against the thug who robbed him. Now,
Antoine's arms will have to be placed in a cast, and he will be unable
to interview for the summer science lab program. A patient, Celinda
Randlett (TERI GARR - "Tootsie"), says she is medically
empathetic (she feels what is happening inside other people), and she
accurately diagnoses the patients surrounding her in the emergency room.
Celinda asks Hathaway--in the presence of nurse Lydia Wright (recurring
guest star ELLEN CRAWFORD)--when the baby is due. The staff deduces that
Hathaway is pregnant. Greene and Corday perform an ultrasound on
Hathaway that reveals she is bearing twins. Later, the  emergency
room staff gives Hathaway an impromptu baby party. Weaver rescues an
abandoned, drugged 2-year-old boy. Romano introduces a complicated
telephone code to the emergency room employees, and Anspaugh becomes
furious with him because of it. Romano offers Corday the cardiothoracic
fellowship that Benton rejected. And Carla informs Benton that she got
married last week and plans to move to Germany with her new husband and
Reese. Later, Benton goes to Carla's apartment, takes Reese from the
baby-sitter and brings him home. Jeanie realizes she cares for Officer
Reggie Moore and tells him she has contracted hepatitis C. They have a
meaningful talk. And Greene and Corday share their first kiss.
