What happened to Pratt?
- explosion in ambulance at the end of the last series (makes a change from blowing up the actual ER).
Where’s Kovac?
- sulking somewhere after Abby got really weird during her drinking phase. He spent ages "in Croatia" looking after his dying dad, during which time Abby started drinking again. They haven't really got on since he returned, and wasn't hugely supportive when Abby confessed she was drinking and asked him to be patient. He ended up stomping off at some point to get some "space" (or to negotiate a better pay from the TV company??)
Is Abbey still an alcoholic?
do alcoholics ever become "not"? She's got dry again. At the end of the last series she was looking at jobs outside County, but in the end decided to stay.
