This week: Carter falls off the wagon after treating an Iraq War veteran, Luka make an offer to Sam, Neela’s parents make a surprise visit, Ray brings out the rocker look we all know and love, Abby does does her best to help a young woman who is a victim of human trafficking, and a gay couple is brought in after being attacked in Grant Park.

This week: Neela goes on a job hunt, Abby goes behind Ray’s back and drug tests a patient, Carter is very much not ok, Chuck breastfeeds his kid, a nerdy new surgeon makes his debut, Corday breaks the law to save an HIV+ patient’s life, Howard shows some troubling signs of a mental illness, and a tired Luka tries his best to be a dad. 

This week: Susan gets promoted, Howard has a complete meltdown, Neela gets a job offer, Sam and Alex ponder moving in with Luka, Abby ditches a paramedic ride-along, Kerry gives a great example of constructive dismissal, Corday has a completely unsatisfying goodbye, and the whole ER tries their best to care for two young girls after their mom all but throws them out a window.

This week: An anxious Neela makes her return to County, Ray sucks at dealing with grieving family members, Carter claims he’s ok (but is he though?), Abby isn't being assertive enough, Dubenko tries to teach some physics in the middle of a trauma, and Pratt “encourages” the interns with a contest. 

This week: Ray Liotta guest stars as a dying alcoholic. The show follows his final hours while Sam, Luka, and Pratt try to find some way to save him, make him comfortable, and help him reconnect with his estranged son.
