Instead of breakfast, Luka and Chen find three persons are murdered during a holdup at Doc Magoo's, and one survivor they hospitalize. Chen's partial description of one of the perps leads to an unpleasant morning of racial profiling for Pratt and Gallant, who get arrested, handcuffed and cop boot in neck, which ghetto rebel Pratt learned to live with, gentleman Gallant refuses to stand by, so it's a challenge treating an openly racist, case-related patient. Kovac can't keep avoiding to attend mandatory psych counseling, but doesn't cooperate at his first session with Dr. Paul Myers, blaming his Balkanic, US mentality and romantic traumas. Lewis and her terminally ill teenage patient Sean Simmons enjoy a carnival day together before he's back in mother's stifling home. Carter decides to propose 'properly' to Abby, who is having difficulty finding someone to give her mother, who stresses to both they can match but only for the right reasons, a ride to the bus station for her trip back to Minnesota, which John volunteers. Abby thinks his shouted proposal was not serious, but in a privately hired restaurant he reconsiders offering her an heirloom diamond ring.
