Episode Summary

The ER is faced with a blood shortage during a fierce blizzard, leaving Dr. Carter to make a tough decision when an injured criminal is brought in for emergency treatment. Dr. Greene, Dr. Del Amico and Carter work to save a security guard who was shot when he interrupted the rape of an elderly woman. Dr. Corday offers advice when Dr. Benton is upset over Carla's plans to put baby Reese in daycare. Dr. Ross lends a sympathetic ear to Cynthia when she complains about her relationship with Greene, then is surprised when Nurse Hathaway confronts him about the flaws in their own relationship. Dr. Weaver is impressed when Dr. Ellis makes a dramatic gesture to gain her trust. Jerry appeals to Weaver to let him return to the day shift.

Episode Quotes

Jerry Markovic: Carter, what do you think the best approach with Weaver is? Contrition? Indignation?
Nurse Malik McGrath: Begging.
Dr. John Carter: I think I would just appeal to her innate sense of fairness.
Nurse Lydia Wright: She has a sense of fairness?
Dr. John Carter: Yeah. Just remind her that you've been on nights now for...
Jerry Markovic: Four months.
Dr. John Carter: And that you think your exemplary work history, and your many years of loyal service, marred only by one minor incident...
Nurse Lydia Wright: Blowing up the ambulance bay.
Dr. John Carter: ...makes it incumbent upon her to bring you back to the land of the living.
Nurse Malik McGrath: I still say beg.

Dr. Kerry Weaver: Overweight 62-year-old shoveling two feet of wet snow. I can't imagine why he's having an MI.
