Little Drops of Water, Little Grains of Sand (3x8)

: 30, 1963

Dr. Casey misdiagnoses Frank Alusik's lead poisoning, contracted at his job, as a brain tumor. This prompts Mr. Kranz, the attorney for the employer's insurance company, to make Frank an offer he considers: $15,000 plus the cost of an operation to determine if Frank has a brain tumor. However, the operation could kill Frank in the absence of a tumor. Meanwhile, Mr. Lindsey, Frank's attorney, urges Frank to sue his employer for $100,000.
