'VITAL' Help Wanted .... please!!!

I really enjoyed this movie. I purchased it on video after seeing it on T.V.

I have a question that is really baffling me.

I could have sworn, that in the "T.V Version", that one of the characters - Gant, was killed in a peadestrian accident - I'm sure, just outside the homes of, Michael (Chatham), Bobby (Hayes) and Suzanne (Maloney??). Yet in the "Video Version", this does not take place.

Am I only imagining it - as I suspect I am, OR DID this part of the movie - (where one of the med students (sure it was Gant) was killed) ACTUALLY happen on the TV? and was cut away, or whatever for the Video Version?

I would LOVE to know!!!

Fact?
or//
Imagined?

Please someone out there help me. It is driving me CRAZY!!!!
I'll be declared even crazier, if it turns out that I imagined the whole thing1

Regards,
"Little Mermaid"

Can't answer that question but be aware of something--TV versions are not always the same as the theatrical version. Some scenes are cut out and others are put in their place. Some TV versions use footage that was never even IN the theatrical version! "Bloodline" added a solid hour of footage when it premiered on TV. So...you're probably not crazy.

Sorry that I'm about 6 years too late with this reply but I think you're referring to an episode of ER when the character Gant jumped in front of a train.
