About the Episode
Johnny's policeman friend is brought over at Rampart, who later dies of a car accident, when another Squad was busy speaking to another person on the bio phone with a heart case, leading Roy to find if the delay can matter, later. Doctors treat a child, who's an alcoholic. Johnny and Roy assist in treating opposing members of a bike gang, after a bloody beaten fight, with the encouragement of Dr. Brackett and Dixie. Other rescues include that of a man who welded himself inside his own kinetic art sculpture, and a father and son trapped in a building collapse at a construction site.
