It's the annual hospital emergency incident simulation day, but after being accidentally knocked out Simon wakes up in the middle of a real disaster. Meanwhile, Frankie goes for a job interview.

Further details

Simon is initially super excited by the annual hospital emergency incident simulation day, where actors are brought in to pretend to be badly injured victims of a major disaster. However, when he is accidentally knocked out he wakes up in the middle of a real disaster with real injuries and assumes it's all part of the simulation...with disastrous consequences!

Anthony, though, is completely in his element as we learn he did a stint early in his career as an actor. Meanwhile, Frankie goes for a secret job interview. Is she about to leave the hospital?
