synopsis
A fast-spreading wildfire impedes the efforts of the Rampart emergency staff to save an elderly woman suffering from dehydration, a seriously injured looter, and one of their own firemen trapped under a fallen tree. Further complications ensue from an emergency birth procedure in which the mother can't be moved, and an "A.P.B." for a lost dog. Gary Crosby makes his first Emergency! guest appearance in the role of John Conway, while former Leave It to Beaver costar Tony Dow shows up on a motorcycle.
