Mr. Docherty is getting married to his personal assistant the following day and the staff hold a surprise party for him. Caroline is vomiting, and our suspicions are confirmed when she later tells Andrew that she is pregnant. Raj's father has had a heart attack and is being treated at the hospital. Dr. Mortimer is diagnosed with pneumonia, which is very concerning, given his HIV-positive status. Smedley and Claire get back together. In the final scenes, Dr. Collin visits Liz Reid, the former intern who has previously suffered a mental breakdown, in the medical staff quarters. Someone knocks on the door and says they're a diabetic requiring assistance. Andrew opens the door and the patient stabs him with a needle containing insulin. Meanwhile, Raj realises who the maniac patient is, and arrives shortly afterwards, attempting to subdue him. Drs. Maitland, Smedley, Mortimer and Raj attempt to treat Dr. Collin, whose life is clearly in great danger. The episode, and the series, end on a cliffhanger... Written by Duchess of New Town See less
