Ehrlich feels pangs of conscience when he's invited with Craig to the all-male Cushing Society Convention and is paired off with a call girl. Also: Ellen Craig's check up could get more physical with an admiring Gideon around; Gideon names a new Chief Resident. 

Dr. Gideon prevents a strike by orderlies. Auschlander's interest in maintaining the hospital's old values seems to ebb, forcing Gideon to give the former Chief of Services a pep talk to keep him from leaving. Also: Wade can't stand being house mother for roommates Novino, Chandler and Griffin; Craig is spurned again in his attempts at reconciliation with his wife; Ehrlich and Papandrao return home giddy after their honeymoon; and a dying AIDS victim must mediate between his lover and resentful father.
