Carter engages in competition with new surgical resident in training Dale Edson upon learning that residents will be evaluated and graded, with only the top ones advancing to second year. It doesn't help that Dale once had a relationship with Harper. Mark flirts with infomercial director Iris, and a hidden camera captures some private conversations. Benton faces the fallout from his altercation with Doug when surgeons begin dropping him from procedures. Shep begins exhibiting uncontrolled hostility, first to a patient being abusive with Carol, then a pedestrian. Susan and Chloe try to reach an agreement regarding little Susie.
