Medical drama series. Connie struggles to manage an increasingly difficult Elliot when her dad is admitted to Keller, while Joseph must make a difficult choice.

Elliot and Connie come to blows throughout the day as he struggles to avoid getting overly involved with a patient, while Connie is dealing with her dad being admitted to Keller. Things come to a head when Elliot walks out of theatre, leaving Connie to explain the cancellation of an expensive procedure to Hanssen. Connie can defend her friend no longer. She tells Hanssen that Elliot has become a liability, especially with his angina.

Joseph is forced to choose between Faye and Jac after the birth of his son. He realises where his responsibilities lie after Faye injures herself trying to leave the hospital. He halts divorce proceedings, and Faye suggests calling the baby Harry. However, Joseph is gutted when he realises all his efforts have gone to waste and Faye intends to return to the psychiatric unit, taking Harry with her. When he apologises to Jac for choosing Faye, they end up having sex in the staff room.

Patrick Wright, a former patient, is set to make a complaint against the hospital for the mistakes made during his operation. Sacha fails to persuade Chrissie it wasn't her fault, and she admits she was dosed up on caffeine pills at the time. It's a secret that Sacha shares with Jac, not knowing that she was responsible for the mistakes made on Patrick.
