Promises to Keep

Gerichtsmediziner Quincy arbeitet mal wieder länger und untersucht den Tod eines Mädchens, das sich angeblich vergiftet haben soll. Privat bekommt er einen Heiratsantrag von seiner Freundin Lynne - und lehnt ab, weil er an seine erste Ehe denkt, die massiv unter seiner Arbeit gelitten hat. Doch je länger er über eine Heirat nachdenkt, umso mehr ändert sich seine Sichtweise. Schließlich fährt er reumütig nach Hause und will seiner Freundin einen Antrag machen ...

Quincy and Sam have to stay late, going over work that was completed by a Medical Examiner who, it turned out, wasn't qualified for the job. This makes Quincy miss yet another date with Lynne, his current girlfriend. When they do get together she proposes to him. He turns her down because he remembers how he treated Helen, his first wife. He was always working and never spending enough time with her. Later he feels guilty and decides to go and see Lynne and propose to her himself.

A causa di imprevisti sul lavoro, Quincy deve disdire per l'ennesima volta un appuntamento con Lynne. Ma sentendosi in colpa, le fa una promessa.
