Two college students who have been brought into the ER test positive for meningitis, whereupon Carter (Noah Wyle) and Lewis (Sherry Stringfield) scramble to prevent an epidemic. Other cases this week include a self-circumcision and a bizarre method of injecting heroin. Elsewhere, Abby (Maura Tierney) briefly bonds with an injured fireman. Elizabeth (Alex Kingston) continues to be investigated by Infection Control, and also argues with Greene's (Anthony Edwards) daughter Rachel (Hallee Hirsh) over the proper care of her own baby daughter, Ella. And Benton (Eriq La Salle) warns Roger (Vondie Curtis-Hall) to stay away from Reese (Matthew Watkins). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
Neil Grieve directed this sly, comic low-budget contempro conspiracy commentary. Stuart Bliss (Michael Zelniker), who devises ways to promote surplus military materials, is currently concocting a way to market Geiger counters as an ordinary household item. Arriving home early, he catches his wife Janet (Dea Lawrence) leaving on a mysterious trip. Stuart's suspicions verge on paranoia. Is he being watched? What causes the Geiger counters to react? Should he trust co-worker Ted (Derek McGrath)? Why do other people somehow know personal things about Stuart? Why does company assistant Katerina (also Dea Lawrence) resemble his wife? Shown at the 1998 L.A. Independent Film Festival. ~ Bhob Stewart, All Movie Guide
