I don't wish to be gushy. Rob Morrow's Joel Fleischman is such a fine character and he is a really charming character. He is filled with angst at his position, doctoring in a place he wishes he could be done with. There are three strains in this one. First of all is Ed's concern for his Uncle Anku who has some serious prostate symptoms, but for all his Native American ethos, he is refusing treatment. Chris, the disc jockey on Maurice's radio station upsets our astronaut and gets punched out and fired. This angers the population. Finally, Joel has been in conflict with Maggie from their first encounter and has to eat some crow. Uncle Anku teaches him a dance. I really enjoyed the byplay between the old medicine man and the new one. The final few seconds of this episode are absolutely precious.
