About the Episode

A young intern who is the son of one of Rampart's administrators has a rather cocky attitude toward the paramedics; he refuses to allow an IV to a man injured when his chimney explodes after using gasoline to clean it. When a man is nearly killed after the intern orders defib on a heart patient that was not necessary, Dr. Brackett sends him into the field to ride along with Squad 51, where he assists the paramedics in freeing a girl's hand from a mailbox and helps with a heart-attack victim trapped on an explosive oil refinery tower.
