‘The Night Shift’ season 2, episode 4 preview: A powerful story in ‘Three-Two-One’

Night Shift -The second season of “The Night Shift” has certainly given us quite a few surprises over the course of the series’ run, but we don’t think that next week’s installment “Three-Two-One” is really about the element of surprise at all. Instead, it looks as though this is going to be an emotional hour that brings to light headlines that are still reverberating across the country. We’re talking specifically about racial tension, police brutality, and the role of both protests and the media. The promo below definitely hints at a story people will be talking about for some time.

You can see the synopsis for this episode right now below, including how the events that take place early in the episode could end up influencing the end of it in a rather significant way:

“As the city erupts in violence over an impending jury verdict, the night shift becomes ground zero when they have to take in the man suspected of the racially-motivated shooting at the source of the unrest. His presence in the emergency room sparks sharp conversation and disagreements among the staff over the highly-charged topic and even close friends Kenny (JR Lemon) and Paul (Robert Bailey Jr.) find themselves at odds. Topher (Ken Leung) does his best to control the mounting chaos in the ER while out in the field, TC (Eoin Macken) makes a decision as to which of two patients to bring in, leaving Paul and Scott (Scott Wolf) to question TC’s motives.”

By the end of this episode, hopefully we’ll have quite a bit to think about, and to go along with that, a story that also does many of these headlines justice. We will have some further information all about this hour as the episode gets a little closer to airing.
