Union Station

It's Lewis' last day at work before she moves to Arizona, and Greene still hasn't told her that he's enamored with her.

While on the mobile clinic, Anspaugh's traveling care center for the poor, Ross allows a streetwise 14-year-old girl, Charlie (recurring guest star KIRSTEN DUNST - "Interview with the Vampire," "Jumanji"), to forge the signature of a baby's mother for a vaccination after lab tests indicate the baby needs treatment and Ross cannot locate the mother. Meanwhile, the four members of the Herlihy family, who were involved in a terrible car wreck, are all discharged. Benton still feels guilty about his judgment concerning the Herlihy infant.

Suspecting a conspiracy to force employees to quit before they can collect their pensions, Hathaway asks the nursing administrator to stop moving the nurses around to different departments where they are less qualified. The administrator agrees to a compromise in exchange for Hathaway serving on a hospital committee.

Nurse Lydia Wright (recurring guest star ELLEN CRAWFORD) ends her marriage engagement to policeman Alfred "Al" Grabarsky (recurring guest star MIKE GENOVESE) because he keeps delaying the wedding. Devastated, he marries her in an impromptu ceremony at the hospital.

Jeanie's husband finally gives her the signed divorce papers--as well as their house and car. He explains that not only does she deserve them, but his actions will enable him to qualify for a state health program for the poor.

Doyle causes trouble by calling the police to charge a nine-months pregnant woman with the attempted murder of her fetus. Also, Keaton tries to train a skeptical Benton to visualize the body's interior before operating. Keaton continues her secret liaison with Carter. Benton and his former girlfriend Carla become romantic in an empty operating room.

Finally, a surprise farewell party for Lewis is canceled due to an influx of patients from a car accident, and Lewis leaves quietly. Ross persuades Greene to tell Lewis how he feels. Greene rushes to the train station and stops Lewis from boarding a train. He breathlessly tells her that he loves her. However, Lewis' feelings toward Greene are those of a loving friendship, and she leaves.
