Description: Carter enjoys his ride-along with
paramedics until they rescue an injured landlord who turned off the heat
in his building. Tenants mob the ambulance and endanger all inside.
Carter climbs to the driver's side and tries to depart. The ambulance
runs over a 17-year-old male, crushing his pelvis. Rushed to the
hospital and treated, the teenager survives. On another run, paramedic
Audia dies from a gunshot wound received while driving the ambulance.
Carter believes the bullet was intended for him. Hathaway complains
about her headaches to Greene. He worries that she may have a brain
tumor or carbon monoxide poisoning. But Hathaway knows the real cause of
her headaches--she's pregnant--and confides her secret to Corday. Weaver
treats Kornberg (NILS ALLEN STEWART - "Barb Wire"), a huge,
muscular professional wrestler with a knee injury who graciously signs
autographs and visits children in the pediatric
ward. Now working on her medicine rotation, Lucy administers to an old
Chinese woman, Chan-Yu Fong (BEULAH QUO), experiencing seizures. Tests
reveal that Chan-Yu has advanced lung cancer that has spread to her
brain. The patient's son and daughter-in-law refuse to let the woman
know her true diagnosis. Lucy reluctantly obeys their wishes. Jeanie
receives a copy of Al's lab test results proving he did not give her
Hepatitis C. Jeanie concludes she contracted the disease from a patient.
She tells Dr. Baker and Reggie that she is dating someone else. And a
county jail sheriff transports a dehydrated Mobalage to the emergency
room. Kubby awakens from a coma and explains that she stabbed herself.
The District Attorney dismisses the charges, but Mobalage, who was
tortured in his native country of Nigeria, awaits a deportation hearing
for forging his visa.
