The DeSotos appear on a TV quiz show. The firefighters then respond to a liquor store shooting involving a policeman; another officer opposes to John and Roy (and pretty much does the same thing to Dixie) in treating the suspect. Dr. Brackett treats an abused child brought into Rampart; later, the paramedics assist a man who inhaled too much nitrous oxide, treat a boy in anaphylatic shock from a bee sting, and aid the victims of a collision between a station wagon and a pickup truck carrying kerosene, causing a brush fire.
