In Short: Dr. Kronk must decide whether or not to grant the request of a convicted child molester who wants to be castrated. When a patient comes into the E.R. after being severely beaten by his neighbors, he reveals that, by law his record as a convicted sex offender must be made public. His life a shambles, the man begs to be castrated, and Dr. Kronk has to overcome his repulsion to treat him. Meanwhile, Dr. Shutt struggles to regain his health after a devastating setback that his colleagues fear will cause permanent brain damage; Dr. McNeil refuses an "easy cure" to a heroin addict, and Dr. Grad treats an HIV positive 14-year-old.
