Description

Several episodes deal with patients who have been sexually assaulted. A recurring plotline in season 4 involves a serial rapist targeting elderly women; the rapist is eventually caught and dies at the hospital. S2E8: a brother and a sister have sex which results in pregnancy. The father attempts to kill his son because he believed he raped his sister. S13E1: rape on-screen (30:00-33:00). S8E16: a character is pressured by his coworkers to talk about his first sexual experience and reveals that he lost his virginity at age 11 to a woman in her twenties. A couple of the other characters present joke about this, including one person jokingly implying that the woman was paid by the character's parents to have sex with him. None of this is ever brought up or mentioned again. S15E8: one plotline involves a patient being accused of pedophilia. When he is attacked by his brother-in-law for interacting with a young girl at the hospital, one of the main characters witnesses this and does not intervene, instead allowing him to be injured. At the end of the episode, the character reveals to a coworker that he was sexually abused as a child and found it difficult to be objective because the patient's behavior reminded him of his abuser. While he describes the abuse he went through, the man accused of sexual abuse is shown interacting with the girl again in much the same way as the character describes his abuser interacting with him, implying that the patient is indeed a pedophile.
