Description: DR. BENTON IS BENT ON SAVING HIS CAREER
-- A frustrated Dr. Benton (Eriq La Salle) desperately searches for a
new position at any local hospital but soon learns that he has been
blackballed by the arrogant Dr. Romano (Paul McCrane), and he must
consider other options out-of-state -- even though he risks losing joint
custody of his infant son with the combative mother (guest star Lisa
Nicole Carson). Elsewhere, a recovering Dr. Carter (Noah Wyle) is
cleared to work on a few trauma patients while Dr. Chen (Ming-Na) labors
to offer a young mother (guest star Cynthia Mann Jamin) some temporary
relief as she tries to secure permission to operate on the woman's
terminally ill young son. Abby (Maura Tierney) finds herself attracted
to Dr. Kovac (Goran Visnjic) but their budding relationship is
interrupted by tragedy. In addition, Dr. Malucci (Erik Palladino) casts
about in a vain search for an extra skilled hockey player for his team's
game that night -- even though Dr. Greene (Anthony Edwards) is ready and
willing to strap on his skates. Laura Innes, Alex Kingston and Michael
Michele also star.
