At Chicago's County General Hospital, Chief of Staff Dr. Robert Romano stubbornly prolongs a janitors' strike, causing dangerous conditions. Romano nastily interviews Dr. Peter Benton and eventually makes him attending physician. Attending Physician Dr. Mark Greene returns from vacation with his girlfriend, Associate Chief of Surgery Dr. Elizabeth Corday. After Chief of Emergency Medicine Dr. Kerry Weaver tells Intensive Care Unit nurse Abby Lockhart that her education is delayed due to nonpayment, Abby berates her ex-husband for neglecting her tuition fee. Third-year resident Dr. Jing-Mei Chen keeps her pregnancy secret. And second-year resident Dr. Cleo Finch notices the lack of blacks among new medical students. </span> </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">When a man rushes his wife to the emergency room too late to save her, physician Dr. Luka Kovac pretends to operate on the dead woman to ease the old man's guilt. Meanwhile, Greene performs surgery on a high school football player, Mike Palmieri (WENTWORTH MILLER), who was brutally tackled. Greene assures Palmieri's mother that the injuries are routine, until he discovers bleeding around Palmieri's heart. As Greene frantically works, dozens of injured rival football players and cheerleaders fill the emergency room--the game became a riot after Palmieri left. When Palmieri's teammates find out that he might die, they start a gigantic brawl, destroying the waiting area and injuring second-year resident Dr. Dave Malucci. Despite the melee, Greene saves Palmieri's life. Carter arrives from the airport to retrieve his car and wisely decides not to go inside the hospital.</span></address> <address ALIGN="LEFT">  </address> <hr color="#006666" size="1"></font><font FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="4"><b> <address ALIGN="CENTER">  </address> <address ALIGN="CENTER"> <span style="font-style: normal"><a name="Sand And Water">Sand And Water </a> </span> </address> <address ALIGN="CENTER">  </address> </b></font><font FACE="Times New Roman"> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">Written by Jack Orman</span></address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">Directed by Christopher Misiano</span></address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT">  </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">Carter agrees to undergo random urine tests and constant monitoring in order to return to work at County General. He also attends Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. To his surprise, he encounters Abby at one of them, and she admits that she is a recovering alcoholic. Abby agrees to be Carter's sponsor. Carter's grandmother, Millicent (recurring guest star FRANCES STERNHAGEN), begs him to quit his stressful job. </span> </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">After learning that an abusive diabetes patient sold his Medicare coverage to a bankrupt Health Maintenance Organization, Romano forbids Benton from operating on the man. Benton protests Romano's unethical and illegal order. But a visit from a county inspector prompts Romano to pretend the whole situation is a mix-up. Kovac and Weaver struggle with a delusional stroke patient whose lesbian partner asks the doctors not to keep her alive by machines. But legally, the decision must be made by the victim's estranged brother. An upset Chen admits to Weaver that she is pregnant after witnessing a patient, Regina Morgan (LARA HARRIS), give birth very prematurely. Unable to medically help the tiny infant boy, Abby allows the hopeful Regina and her husband to hold their son for an amazing nine hours before he dies. </span> </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">Now living with Greene, Corday is continually frustrated by his cramped, dilapidated apartment.

Making matters worse, Romano vindictively terminates Benton after being fined for the recent HMO matter that Benton protested. Abby wishes she could help more, but she has been demoted to nurse because of late tuition payments. On his first day back, Carter is also relegated to minor medical tasks until Weaver deems him fit for stressful work, but he befriends an optimistic paralyzed boy. Cleo still resents Carter for his drug addiction. Abby and Carter treat a succession of unpleasant cases, like a trio of food-poisoned Japanese businessmen and a science fiction fan who cut his ears like a "Star Trek" alien. </span> </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">Soon, the understaffed emergency room is full of costumed victims from a collapsed causeway at a science fiction convention. At one point, Corday instructs Greene on a complex operation over the intercom while performing another one herself. Although Abby helps overburdened Kovac save a patient's life, Weaver scolds her for doing work for which she is no longer authorized. Abby and Kovac impulsively kiss. Meanwhile, the desk clerk, Frank (recurring guest star TROY EVANS), causes trouble by constantly telephoning his policeman friend and having patients arrested for outstanding warrants. Weaver helps a hardworking single mother wanted for minor check fraud escape, however, and orders Frank not to meddle anymore.

Corday convinces an associate in Philadelphia to hire Benton, but this would cause major problems with Benton's ex-girlfriend, Carla (recurring guest star LISA NICOLE CARSON), regarding custody of their toddler son, Reese (recurring guest star MATTHEW WATKINS). Desperate, Benton accepts Romano's demeaning offer of a per diem job with no benefits at County. </span> </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">Weaver allows the recovering Carter to work on a few trauma patients, but he is still frustrated by the restrictions. Greene kindly arranges for a cosmetologist from the morgue to help a beauty pageant contestant with burned legs so she can compete that night. Carter's stress is magnified when a female gang member sneaks in and shoots to death a young gunshot patient Carter had just triumphantly saved. Chen gives hope to a mother by promising to get a surgeon to prolong the life of a terminally ill child. But Chen must later inform the distraught woman that the surgeons refused to operate on the hopeless patient. </span> </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">On their first date, Abby and Kovac are attacked by a mugger with a steel pipe. Injured, Kovac protects Abby and smashes the robber's head on the ground repeatedly. Later, the man dies in the emergency room, and the police question the traumatized Kovac. Also, Greene persuades a dubious Malucci to let him play on his ice hockey team.

With Greene leaving in a helicopter to rescue a heart patient and Weaver off from work, Romano puts Benton in charge of the very hectic emergency room for the first time as part of Benton's new per diem job. In a remote part of Indiana, Greene retrieves the patient, Tom Coggins (JOHN PYPER-FERGUSON), and takes off to return to the hospital. But the helicopter develops mechanical difficulties and lands roughly in a junkyard, injuring the pilot. Because Tom's fiancie, Janet Sanderling (VIVIAN WU), is waiting at County General, Greene orders the local paramedics to bring Tom there. He stabilizes Tom and, unsure if a heart donation will arrive in time to keep him alive much longer, allows him to marry Janet in a hastily arranged bedside ceremony. </span> </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">While Carter treats a teenager, Trent Larson (BLAKE HERON), for a routine hand cut, Trent's grandmother confidentially warns Carter to be careful--Trent is HIV positive. The family never told Trent that his mother died from AIDS shortly after giving birth to him and that the "vitamins" he takes are to control the disease. Carter defies the elderly woman and tells Trent the truth. When Trent's girlfriend is diagnosed as HIV positive as well, she berates Trent, prompting him to flee the hospital. Later, Carter is distraught to see Trent die after being hit by a car. Weaver arrives to bring the overloaded emergency room under control and tries to console Carter. Meanwhile, upset that he could not manage his assigned task, Benton seeks sympathy from Carla, who scolds him for not being emotionally available to her.

After telling Maggie to return to Florida, where Abby's brother takes care of her, Abby guiltily allows her to stay. </span> </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">Malucci is cocky when Greene and Corday allow him to work on a gravely injured gunshot victim requiring complex surgery. No one realizes that the patient is Jesse, Benton's nephew, until Cleo meets Benton's sister, Jackie, in the waiting area and notifies Benton. Benton bursts into the emergency room and roughly pushes Malucci aside after Malucci unknowingly makes disparaging comments about Jesse, assuming that he is a common gang member. Despite Benton's strenuous efforts, Jesse dies. After Benton gives the tragic news to his sister, Malucci tries to apologize to Benton for his attitude. Enraged and grief-stricken, Benton attacks Malucci, resulting in a violent fistfight. </span> </address> <address ALIGN="LEFT"> <span style="font-style: normal">Greene and Corday strive to escape the hospital by 6:00 p.m. to go on a romantic weekend.

Carter defies Kovac's conflicting prognosis and performs a risky but successful procedure on a man suffering from a previously undetected blood clot.

But Chen leaves after shocking her conservative mother with the fact that the father of her unborn baby is black. Greene is elated when Corday tells him she is pregnant, but he does not inform her of his brain tumor.
