Back down in the Emergency Department, Cate comes face to face with a past unresolved situation when a prostitute is brought in brutally bashed. When Cate finds out the patient is the mother of the child she saw in a brothel [episode 7.35], she rushes in where angels fear to tread. Engaging Nelson's help to get the Department of Child Services on side, Cate launches into her quest to save the child, Lily. Nelson watches with concern as Cate's objectivity is brought into question. It takes an extraordinary offer for Nelson to understand the depth of the situation. When all options are exhausted both Cate and Nelson feel drained and unfulfilled as their efforts result in a no-win situation for all concerned. Jack is tending to a woman with a self-inflicted injury after a road rage incident. In treating this woman, Jack is forced to think more carefully about his behaviour when dealing with the emotional rollercoaster he is on with Charlotte and their unborn child. It's all going too fast and the child somehow seems unreal. The situation is complicated by the fact that Charlotte's pregnancy is now common knowledge and Jack's role in it is already known to Frank Campion. Frank, a party to all these events, has to re-evaluate his own role as a parent. Kathleen is recovering and asks to see him. When he visits, he learns her mother has been to see Kathleen several times too. An angry confrontation settles nothing. Lily's unfolding plight gives Frank food for thought and even though he's not able to make a rapprochement with Alison herself, he does find himself beginning to make room for her in their daughter's life.See less
