Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Suffering from inoperable cancer, Dr. Peter Halstead (Robert Hays) undergoes an experimental surgical procedure, in which he is given a full-body transplant. Alas, the operation has some unforeseen side effects: Halstead begins experiencing the memories and emotions of Timothy Laird (Rice Honeywell), the dead person who "donated" Halstead's new body. In one of his more horrific images, Halstead sees exactly what Laird saw just before he died -- or rather, just before he was murdered. "Donor" originally aired on January 29, 1999.
