Robbie and Tina were enjoying a quiet weekend without Pete, but his pa Peter has papers served: he sues for full custody. Tina's lawyer convinces Robbie his criminal record would wreck her case; he's inclined to bow out, but a pub colleague suggests he provokes Peter's known violent temper, with plain-clothes cop Reggie standing by. Fearless makes a seizable drug-bust for Officer Duncan, then is poisoned in Jim's surgery. Elliot's coaching succeeds in making Joanie go out with his friend, studly artist Matt, but she's not over Burt yet. Syd's aggressive tone ruins Congressman Joe Connely's amicable approach of his Ziodex friend Bill Graff; Joe still promises to organize a Congressional hearing if hard proof is produced the life-saving drug is willfully sidetracked, which only Dr. Carrol can.
