[edit] Plot Overview

Dr. Mark Sloan, a physician who assists the LAPD on occasion, goes to work when one of his patients is framed for killing his business partner.

[edit] Notes

While this is the first TV movie of Diagnosis Murder, this is not the first appearance of Dr. Mark Sloan--the character was introduced in an episode of Jake and the Fatman, entitled "It Never Entered My Mind". In that episode, Dr. Sloan was the physician to D.A. J.L. McCabe and found himself accused of the murder of the hospital's head doctor, who clashed with the happy-go-lucky doctor.
