The Episode in this weeks "About" is called "Going Home" and originally aired 9/29/1994. The episode centers on nurse Hathaway's first day back on the job after her attempted suicide. The episode is strong, moving, and powerful (as were the previous two) but lacked a little bit of luster that the original two episodes had. The script is sometimes spotty leaving the viewer to wonder what exactly was left on the cutting room floor. Some highlights though are Dr. Carters performance on a strange singing lady (played wonderfully by Rosemary Clooney). All in all this is a so-so episode recommended for fans of the first season. 7 out of 10 stars.
