The Air Force comfort officer is anything but; Tom and Simon try to deal with him and with public misinformation. Flashbacks to the post-9/11 show provide political perspective, foreshadow Danny and Matt getting fired, and showcase Andy and the earlier writing team. Harriet and Matt visit Danny as Jordan has internal complications. Danny discovers he's not a father -- at least, not to the hospital or the courts. He sends Matt back to deal with the hostage situation, while Harriet remains for support. The doctor's pace and focus easily stand up to S60 repartee. Written by norcekri
