End of new pictures

After the little girl's hand is freed from the swimming pool drain, Dixie and Joe Early enter the lounge.

Dixie: "Nice job, Joe."

Joe: "Well, you know what they say. You can't lose 'em all.

Dixie says she wishes they could say the same for the Patterson girl

.

Joe asks if the girl was the one who took the reds that were laced with the Sodium hydroxide

Dixie: "Yeah, that's right." She goes on to say that they are going to have to do a procedure on the girl.

Dixie: "She'll be lucky if she keeps one third of her stomach."

Joe: "That's rough. Do they know how it happened?"

Dixie: "mmm hmm."

Dixie: "Police turned up a classmate of hers."

Dixie: "She was mad because the Patterson girl was making a play for her boyfriend."

Dixie: "Thought she'd teach her a lesson."

Joe shakes his head.

Joe: "Drugs."

Joe: "That's three rough cases we had today."

Dixie nods slightly as Joe goes on: "One's gonna lose a chunk of her stomach, another her hand. . ."

Joe: "And the third may lose his life."

Joe: "You think they'll ever learn?"

Dixie: "Oh they'll learn alright, Joe. Mostly when it's too late."

They think about the situation as the scene fades to Station 51, where Chet is about to hear how the dinner date went.

 Boot

Johnny and Roy leave after freeing a woman from her mixer

Next scene is at Rampart

Brackett comes out of room where he has been with a patient

Brackett shakes his head at the odd situation of the patient.

He spots Joe Early

Brackett tells Early he has a patient that is  into one of those occult groups

The patient is a 24 year old man who thinks he is under a voodoo spell

And does Joe feel up to lifting a *curse*

Joe watches Brackett leave

He goes in to see the patient

Joe talks to the man. Seems he can't move his right arm.

The man explains he doesn't think Early can help him

It's beyond science

And he can't remember the name of the *other guy* (Brackett) but he told him the same thing.

Joe listens

He tells him he's lifted curses before

The patient asks if he believes

Joe says he not only believes, he knows

Dixie observes

Joe pinches the guy's arm to see if he feels it. The guy smiles and says "no."

Joe tells him it's a disassociative curse

The man says he's never heard of it

Joe starts with his *cure*

He tells the man to take a deep breath

And let it out slowly

Joe starts to pour water in a bowl

He has the man take another breath and let it out slow

He has him breath in deep again as he continues to pour the water

Dixie reminds Joe he needs to tell his patient to exhale

The man is still trying to hold his breath

He is relieved after Dixie reminds Joe and he is instructed to exhale.

Joe brings the bowl of water over

He asks if the man's fingers and toes are tingling

And if he's lightheaded. He answers "Yes."

Joe swipes a wet object across his arm

He tells the man to take a drink

Joe tells him to use his right arm. The curse is lifted and not to be afraid.

The man starts to move his fingers

He takes his hand off his chest

His fingers move freely

The man is grateful to the doctor

A happy patient continues to move his hand

Still moves it

Now he can't stop moving his hand

He asks the doctor how does he stop it.

Joe walks out all smiles

Dixie says he's in the wrong line of work

Next scene, Johnny on the phone with the vet's office
