Bobby Sherman was a teenybopper idol with a string of chart hits in the 70s. This episode showcases what a good actor Bobby Sherman really was; a much better actor than singer (I always thought his singing was a bit flat).

As the stuck-up intern, his facial expressions and barking of medical orders from the bay station really capture the impression of an "I'm superior to you" attitude toward Gage and DeSoto. It's really too bad Sherman stopped acting after this show.

Sherman fans will enjoy this trip down memory lane.

The rescue segments are decent and the refinery fire offers good effects and engaging tension.

Bobby Sherman plays an arrogant intern who has little regard for the advice and experience of either season nurses or paramedics. His attitude is not only dismissive, but openly insulting to the faces of those he disregards. The situation is complicated by the fact his father is a well-regarded surgeon with some pull at Rampart General, as a member of the surgical board.

When Sherman's character ignores the report of Gage and deSoto from the field which could have resulted in a patient death, Bracket assigns him on a 'ride along'. The first call is a woman with her hand stuck in a mailbox, which doesn't impress the intern much with what the paramedics must accomplish in the field.

However, just as he's about to leave the station, a fire is called in, and the paramedics and the intern face a man in full arrest high on a tower with a fire at its base. Will he learn to trust and respect the men in the field?
