“This episode of u0026quot;Quincyu0026quot; begins with a woman in some sort of physical distress trying to get some help. Unfortunately, the guy she finds is just some thief–who steals her purse and leaves her in agony. Soon, she is discovered…dead. They think itu0026#39;s due to carbon monoxide poisoning, but it turns out she died from a perforated ulcer–something youu0026#39;d rarely die from in this day and age. So, without looking into the facts, Quincy runs about half-cocked making wild accusations against the dead ladyu0026#39;s doctor. These wild accusations appear to lead to the surviving husband filing suit against this doctor–and itu0026#39;s a great case of Quincy opening his big, fat mouth! Later, when Quincy finds out that a LADY doctor is the attending physician (one that he was really lusting after earlier in the episode), Quincy changes his tone completely–and spends the rest of the film trying to prove the doctor was innocent!! This hypocrisy and sexism really make it hard to like Quincy in this one–and I am surprised that his part was written this way. Because he was so inconsistent and never apologized for creating a lynch-mob mentality, I found this one a less than stellar episode. The writing just wasnu0026#39;t up to snuff here.”
