Peter Wagner is a junior attending in orthopedic surgery at the Philadelphia General Hospital. During a late night trauma call he meets ex-con Russell Martino, a.k.a. – the Dashing Don, who discloses to Pete a rather peculiar bit of information. The tip triggers a re-evaluation of the case that imprisoned Martino, prompting the appearance of surly city Detective Hank Donovan. Dr. Wagner suddenly finds himself in an ethical bind, trapped between the confidentiality of a patient-physician relationship and an expanding investigation that embroils City Hall. To complicate matters, the President of the United States announces the start of his re-election campaign with a speech in Philadelphia’s Fairmount Park – touting a national health care plan that riles the local medical community. Unfortunately, the political rally lands on the same date as Pete’s wedding, which against his advice blossoms into an extravagant affair. As the president arrives in town stumping for votes, it becomes unclear as to who is telling the truth and who will actually survive the big day. Last Words Spoken is the sequel to Twelve Men in the Huddle and follows the lives of Peter Wagner and Heather Jackson. The storyline touches upon the emotions surrounding medicine, politics and the future of health care.
