Things Change
An overmedicated psychotic patient, James (Johnny Sneed), threatens Abby. Also, Abby learns news about her missing brother, Eric (recurring guest star Tom Everett Scott). Meanwhile, Romano continues to make rash judgments--and enemies--when he tries to perform a surgery in the emergency room. Kovac welcomes his longtime friend Gordana Horvat (Nina Sablich), a fellow Croatian doctor, who wants to observe the chaos of an inner-city American hospital. While Carter guides a group of eager medical students--who witness him tenaciously try to save a cardiac patient--he receives some emotional news from home.
