Cinq jours en sursis (II)
Alors qu'il est à Los Angeles pour témoigner pour un procès contre le gangster Frank Harmon, Ed est abattu et tombe du balcon de sa chambre d'hôtel. Il est ensuite emmené à l'Institut Craig où il subit une intervention chirurgicale d'urgence. Bien que les blessures par balle ne mettent pas sa vie en danger, Ed souffre d'une fracture du dos à la chute et de dommages à la colonne vertébrale. La cicatrisation le laisse paralysé et seule une intervention chirurgicale expérimentale est la seule option pour retrouver sa mobilité. De plus, même si toutes les preuves indiquent Harmon, Ironside doute qu'il soit la personne responsable de la tentative de coup. De plus, le chef commence à avoir des flashbacks sur la nuit où il a été abattu et paralysé. Écrit par Brian Washington Ce crossover débute avec Ironside S04E01 Cinq jours en sursis (I).
