Mercy Point braces for a sudden influx of patients after the explosion of a passenger shuttle that has left the pilot dead. The co-pilot is in critical condition, and an accident scene investigator arrives on the station, wanting to do a “memprint” from her mind, even though the stress of doing so may kill her. Dr. Batung overrules his human colleagues during surgery on a woman with badly injured legs, insisting that amputation followed by cybernetic prosthesis is the only possible treatment. He’s stunned when, after the surgery, his patient says she should’ve been allowed to die…not realizing that she was a prize-winning gymnast.

Notes: Matt Smith is the Doctor! Or at least Matt Smith is a doctor. And he’s probably not the Matt Smith you’re expecting – this Matt Smith is a Canadian-born actor who went on to have a long career in voicing English dubs of anime, no relation whatsoever to the actor who played the eleventh Doctor of Doctor Who fame.
