Plot

As night falls over the city of Los Angeles, the relentless rhythm of a city-run Emergency Hospital marches on. A diverse cross-section of the city's inhabitants finds their way into its care, each with their own intricate stories. The medical team, led by the dedicated Drs. Janet Carey and Herb Ellis, works hand-in-hand with the police department, directed by the tenacious Sgt. Paul Arnold. Together, they manage an array of patients that include not only the ill and injured but also those ensnared by the law. The night unfolds like a complex tapestry of human tales: a hypochondriac seeking a fascinating diagnosis, a troubled teen injured while breaking into his father's store, a despairing pregnant woman attempting suicide due to her indifferent husband, a gunshot-afflicted criminal on the brink of death, a battered infant with his drunken mother, and a young rape victim whose father is more concerned about public scandal than his daughter's trauma. Amidst this chaos, personal dramas intertwine with societal issues. Sgt. Arnold's son, Jimmy, known well to the hospital staff, becomes a patient after causing a car accident while evading a more serious criminal predicament. Additionally, Dr. Carey's boyfriend, Ben Caldwell, a thrill-seeking race car enthusiast, steps into the hospital, not as a patient but in his quest to persuade Carey to marry him and abandon her demanding career. Dr. Carey's resistance stems from her fear of seeing him succumb to his adrenaline-fueled lifestyle. As the night progresses, a startling event forces Dr. Carey to reconsider her future with Caldwell. The Emergency Hospital serves as the backdrop to this intricate play of human stories, where life, love, and the pursuit of survival intertwine in an unforgettable graveyard shift.
