In the opening episode of ER's third season, Benton (Eriq La Salle) and Jeanie (Gloria Reuben) get the results of their HIV tests, forcing Jeanie to make a difficult decision. Carter's inaugural assignment as a first-year intern is to temporarily replace Benton as ER surgical consultant; Carter (Noah Wyle) also finds time to befriend another first-year man, Dr. Dennis Gant (Omar Epps). Having been promoted to full-time attending physician (and, incidentally, full-time ER regular), Weaver (Laura Innes) is more insufferable than ever. And in two separate Fourth of July festivities, a couple of the other main characters experience uncomfortable reunions. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The death of Gant causes a major blowup between Carter (Noah Wyle) and Benton (Eriq La Salle). Ross (George Clooney) uncovers some facts about battered homeless teen Charlie (Kirsten Dunst). HIV-positive Jeanie (Gloria Reuben) dates Greg Fischer (Harry J. Lennix), a specialist in infectious disease. And woefully understaffed during the nurses' "sick-out," Carol (Julianna Marguiles) makes a fatal error in judgment. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

In the conclusion of a two-part story, the Bundys' luxury cruise to the Caribbean is scuttled when the "Sea Dodge" sinks beneath the waves. This leaves Al (Ed O'Neill) and Peg (Katey Sagal) bobbing up and down in a tiny raft, accompanied by Marcy and Jefferson D'Arcy (Amanda Bearse, Ted McGinley), a plump female tourist named Joy (Hannah Eckstein), and the eternally "kvetching" comedian Gilbert Gottfried. And back at home, the Bundy kids weigh the financial offers made by several news outlets to "tell all" about their parents' ordeal at sea. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Corky (Faith Ford) is depressed over the prospect of turning 30, and never mind that she's still the "kid" of the "FYI" staff. To alleviate her distress, dashing Peter Hunt (Scott Bakula) comes up with a surefire cure for the over-30 blues. As it turns out, this cure involves a great deal of travelling to a great many faraway places--and, it is implied, a bit of fresh romance for the former Mrs. Sherwood-Forrest. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The Medavoys have split up again: Greg (Gordon Clapp) leaves home and camps out at the precinct station, while Marie (Deborah Taylor) finally meets her husband's "significant other," Donna (Gail O'Grady). A curious tattoo leads Sipowicz (Dennis Franz) and Simone (Jimmy Smits) to a Chinese gangster, the former boyfriend of a murdered teenage girl. And while investigating an assault case involving a wheelchair-bound woman (MacKenzie Phillips) and a man claiming to be a cop, Martinez (Nicholas Turturro) learns the truth about the allegedly gay Adrianne Lesnick (Justine Miceli). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The Girl Who Came Between Them is still another "torn from today's headlines" TV movie. Anthony John Denison plays a Vietnam veteran, who is happily married to Cheryl Ladd and comfortably settled in a medium-sized American town. One morning, 13-year-old Vietnamese girl Melissa Chan shows up on Denison's doorstep. Convinced that Chan is his illegitimate daughter, Denison allows her to move into his home, driving a deep wedge between himself and his wife. The Girl Who Came Between Them debuted on April 1, 1990. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
