STORY LINE
Allison realizes that DR. THOMAS, the eminent physician who saved her life, is also a mercy killer who makes daily life-and-death decisions, but often chooses death as his first option…
[DR. THOMAS] An eminent physician in his 40s to mid 50s, a man who emits an air of calm authority, even in the direst circumstances, he’s the Director Of Oncology at the hospital where Allison almost died — and in fact, he brought her back from the verge of death single-handedly. But just behind his veneer of absolute omniscience and controlled omnipotence is a demon of arrogance, a man who believes that his experience in making life-or-death decisions gives him the right to sometimes choose death. Guilty of having quietly terminated the lives of dozens of dying patients with overdoses of potassium, Dr. Thomas is wholly unapologetic about his actions, believing that his form of administered death is considerably kinder than God’s. But when he’s confronted by Allison, and finds that she’s somehow learned just enough to make his life irritatingly complicated, Dr. Thomas starts to use his busy little hypo full of potassium in ways that are far from Godlike…GUEST STAR (3) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
[WILLEM] A young man of about 30, Willem is up for the same Engineering job as Joe Dubois, but he’s panicky as hell before his interview: he pukes in the restroom and looks anxious and harried, like a man who might develop an ulcer at an early age. He’s been unemployed for some time, his marriage is dissolving like Kleenex in water, and he’s literally desperate to get hired. Bridgette’s dreams soon reveal to Joe the unhappy fact that his chief rival for a job is a consummate backstabber, who needs a paycheck more than he needs his self-respect…GUEST STAR (16) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
[JERRY] A man in his early 50s, with stooped shoulders and bags under his eyes, Jerry is the Chief Administrator of the Mariposa Medical Center, the hospital that employs Dr. Thomas; instead of looking like a bigshot in the medical business, Jerry looks like a modern-day reincarnation of Willy Loman, haggard and downbeat. Confronted by Allison with her suspicions about Dr. Thomas, Jerry is indignant and offended, and denies her outrageous accusations absolutely. But in fact, Jerry is quite thoroughly under Dr. Thomas’s thumb, because the good doctor did Jerry a favor once upon a time, and gave his alcoholic wife a lethal injection that made Jerry a “free man.” Unfortunately, when suspicions against Dr. Thomas spread from Allison to Devalos, Jerry has outlived his usefulness to Dr. Thomas, and it’s time for another of those life-or-death decisions that Thomas does so well, and so often…GUEST STAR (41) PLEASE SUBMIT ALL ETHNICITIES
[ROSEMARY] About 40, Rosemary is a patient at the Mariposa Medical Center, and she’s quite ill. She’s frail, and a scarf hides the hair loss that is clearly a result of chemotherapy.

Determined to put on a bright face for Allison’s visit, Rosemary reluctantly reveals that her cancer is in stage four.
