* AdultFear: The children of several military families suddenly get sick from what might be a bioterrorism plot. Thankfully, none of the kids die and it turns out that it wasn't a terrorist attack, but it was still scary for the parents to see their kids suffer from a virus that none of the medical professionals could identify at first.
** Lampshaded with Jimmy's storyline in this episode; he learns that the adoption agency has lined up him and Breena with a possible birth mother, but the current case makes him worry that he could possibly go through what the parents of the sick children are going through in the future. It takes a pep talk from Abby and Carol to get him back to his senses.
