Hurricane Katrina reaches New Orleans, and Memorial Hospital staff begin protecting patients while the storm threatens the building. A dangerous bridge creates the first immediate operational crisis.
The levees begin breaking and floodwater rises around New Orleans. Memorial loses power, forcing staff to confront increasingly severe conditions and prepare for evacuation.
Staff receive promises of rescue boats and instructions for prioritizing patients. Rescue operations become dangerous, and Mulderick must decide when helicopter evacuations should stop.
Law enforcement imposes a five p.m. evacuation deadline while the hospital tries to move every living patient. Mulderick directs Pou toward decisions about patient comfort under extreme pressure.
