The fifth season revolves around a series of difficult events experienced by nurse Jackie. After their incubation meeting, Jackie ends up in Kevin and wakes up as a patient in her emergency room. Coop starts covering Carrie's work and doing more work. When Carrie arrives from Jackie, she writes a prescription for Oxy, unaware she is addicted. The person most likely asks Jackie on a date.
The high level of on-screen talent can't disguise the fact that Nurse Jackie, which seemed poised to take a chance on reinventing itself, has instead settled for trying to reanimate the discarded husk of the show it had grown out of.
