Episode Summary

A new commanding officer arrives, as well as Dr. Grennly, a physician friend of Dr. Seymour. The MD promptly tries to talk Jennifer into returning to the States with him. Meanwhile Major Darling turns a reluctant Goldman into a PR man. And a replacement officer (Escobar) is sent out into the field in charge of Zeke. McKay picks up the squad -- with a number of wounded due to Escobar's incompetence -- but while rushing them back Major Darling sends him after some VC with rockets. When Darling refuses McKay permission to fly back with the wounded, McKay does it anyway -- and is brought up on charges. Alex hears about it and she and Goldman go to bat with the brass for McKay. (ALLEN)
