Weaver (Laura Innes) begins spinning a self-entangling web of deception when she agrees to secretly treat a communicable disease picked up by "closeted" Alderman John Bright (Bruce Weitz). Kovac (Goran Visjnic) resorts to a subterfuge of Biblical proportions to convince a seriously injured patient to accept treatment. And Pratt (Mekhi Phifer) exceeds his authority in order to help the brain-damaged children of a dying woman. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
