Empty Nest (1988)

Episode Overview

Harry attends to five different patients throughout the day: a newborn just a week old, a five-year-old whose father refuses to acknowledge the boy's developing diabetes, a seven-year-old inquisitive about sex, an eleven-year-old about to have his arm cast taken off, and a defiant fourteen-year-old struggling with drug use. He also meets an eighteen-year-old collecting his medical records before heading off to college. In a surprising twist at the end, it becomes clear that these five individuals are all the same person at various stages of life.
