Sean suffers uncontrollable spasms in his hands. After he nicks a patient's major neck artery during a routine cyst lancing, Sean stops performing surgeries. He becomes even more depressed and anxious when Christian, whose nose has been broken by a woman during sex, asks another plastic surgeon to reset it. Christian is deeply insulted when the attractive female surgeon not only rebuffs his sexual advances but also advises him to get some cosmetic work done on the rest of his aging body. Sean's temper finally gets the better of him when someone blocks his car into a parking space. But Julia, with the advice of her abrasive therapist mother, Erica Noughton (Vanessa Redgrave, real-life mother of series star Joely Richardson), helps Sean realize that she will love him even if he cannot be a surgeon anymore. And after botching an attempt to operate on himself in a mirror, Christian bolsters Sean's confidence by confessing that he only trusts Sean to do the job correctly. Meanwhile, Matt's past comes back to haunt him when the girl he injured in a hit-and-run accident last year while driving his friend Henry Shapiro (Andrew Leeds) is raped by the normally subdued Henry. Although the girl had survived the car accident and had even forgiven Matt, the boys were able to keep their involvement in the incident a secret from everyone. But Henry, under extreme pressure to be the ""perfect"" kid for his parents and teachers, became uncontrollably attracted to her and admits raping her. He tells the police about Matt's history with the girl, hoping to receive a more lenient punishment. Before Matt gives a sworn deposition, Sean and Julia assure him that they are on his side no matter what the truth is. But Matt makes a shocking decision. (Warner Bros. UK)
