Synopsis by Hal Erickson
While cramming for her nursing-license exams, Mary Ellen (Judy Norton-Taylor) stays alert by popping "wake-up" pills. Before long, she's hooked on the stimulants, and a near-fatal accident results. Now she must turn to her former beau Dr. Spencer (Robert Christopher Woods) to help her shake her addiction. Meanwhile, a reluctant Elizabeth (Kami Cotler) is pressed into service as a "divorce counselor" when Sissy Tucker (Cissy Wellman) walks out on her husband Yancy (Robert Donner).
