    S3:E16

    Yvette Mimiuex plays the part of a girl who is totally smitten with surfing and is hell bent on being the BEST surfer. She is in Blair and Gillespe diagnoses her with epilepsy. She is warned not to surf OR drive a car until the siezures are brought under control. Despite everyone's concern and warnings she keeps sneaking off to the beach to ""catch the big wave"". Kildare and her friend Clu Gullager go to the beach several times to stop her. At home she has a grand mal(BIG) siezure and is re-hospitalized. It ends there and is continued into part 2. VERY good show, brings you right back to the 60's.
