Plot summary

The ER is put on lockdown when a patient comes in after being exposed to caesium-137 radiation at his welding job, which also puts Paul in danger as he made first contact with the patient.

Chavez does an emergency open heart surgery to save a patient's life, with Krista's assistance. When the shift ends, Chavez says he is off-duty and not her boss at the moment, and the two kiss. Kenny witnesses the kiss and is despondent.
