And after botching an attempt to operate on himself in a mirror, Christian bolsters Sean's confidence by confessing that he only trusts Sean to do the job correctly. But Julia, with the advice of her abrasive therapist mother, Erica Noughton (recurring guest star Academy Award winner VANESSA REDGRAVE, real-life mother of series star JOELY RICHARDSON), helps Sean realize that she will love him even if he cannot be a surgeon anymore. Sean's temper finally gets the better of him when someone blocks his car into a parking space. Christian is deeply insulted when the attractive female surgeon not only rebuffs his sexual advances but also advises him to get some cosmetic work done on the rest of his aging body. He becomes even more depressed and anxious when Christian, whose nose has been broken by a woman during sex, asks another plastic surgeon to reset it. After he nicks a patient's major neck artery during a routine cyst lancing, Sean stops performing surgeries. Sean suffers uncontrollable spasms in his hands. But after Sean gets her to admit the shocking truth, the patient takes drastic measures. And both men must cope with the ramifications of a surprise visit from Julia's narcissistic mother, Erica Noughton (recurring guest star Academy Award winner VANESSA REDGRAVE, real-life mother of series star JOELY RICHARDSON), who demands plastic surgery for a younger appearance.Īlso, the doctors perform facial reconstruction on a young woman who tells them she accidentally shot herself while drunk. Although he is not the father, Christian agrees to help raise the baby of his former sexual partner, Gina Russo (recurring guest star JESSALYN GILSIG), causing him to reevaluate his priorities. Meanwhile, after uncharacteristically failing to pick up a sexy young date at the bar, Christian realizes to his discomfort that there is not much he can do to forestall the aging process. Much more upsetting, however, are the occasional muscle spasms that Sean experiences during delicate surgery, prompting him to visit a neurologist.
As Sean reluctantly celebrates his 40th birthday, Christian urges him to take advantage of some of the youth-preserving treatments available at the clinic.
