Episode Summary

[x] Remove Ad
On Christmas Eve, a chilled emergency room staff do their best to observe the holiday while a crusading Dr. Carter does the same half a world away in a run-down Congolese medical clinic as recent flashbacks reveal his clashes with Makemba, a beautiful native AIDS worker over the meager resources -- and they slowly fall in love. As Carter re-adjusts to the heat, filth and dangers of the region, he keeps in touch with his Chicago friends and embarks on a personal mission to save a pregnant mother who is dying of AIDS, he is confronted by anti-Americanism from his French comrades. Even so, Carter is determined to bring the joy and love of Christmas to the local children of Kisingani.
