Plot
Suzanne Morton dies after a visit to a hospital emergency room during a hectic night shift. Her father (John Spencer), a former medic in Vietnam, accuses the hospital of negligence and demands a police investigation. Logan and Greevey question a doctor who made adjustments to her chart, but are soon led to the respected Dr. Edward Auster, whom they feel might have been drunk on duty. The other residents are reluctant to speak for fear of putting their jobs in jeopardy, and Stone is faced with the awkward job of prosecuting a revered physician.
