What would you do if you saw bullies ganging up on an innocent kid or a couple fighting in the park -- the boyfriend on the verge of physically harming the woman? ABC News conducts a hidden camera s test to see what people do when confronted with ethical dilemmas that force them to act or not. Whether walking right by or getting involved in these scenarios, the reactions people have are fascinating. ABC News also takes the experiment further, looking at whether perception influences people's reactions. Will dressing the bullies tougher or changing the race of the fighting couple affect how people respond? Then: How will passengers handle a taxi driver who goes on an extensive racist rant filled with hateful ethnic slurs... will they tell him to stop, keep quiet, or maybe even join in? What some people think and openly say about race in America is surprising, including a woman who says all Arabs should be sent back to Ali Baba and a man who talks about using Mexicans and Puerto Ricans for target practice.

They are Romania's children for sale. Castoffs, victims of poverty, corruption, greed. Many for sale to the highest bidder. This investigative follow-up returns to a subject Tom Jarriel first examined in 1990, when "20/20" discovered Romania's abandoned children. The children were the result of a plan by Communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu to force women to have at least five children for the State. Romania was once known as the Paris of Eastern Europe. But years of Communism under dictator Ceausescu transformed this country into one of the poorest nations in Europe. The average salary is less than $1,000 a year, and increasingly one of the most popular ways to make a living is the baby business. Selling babies to the highest bidder has become a multimillion-dollar enterprise steeped in corruption with the welfare of the children virtually forgotten in the lust for money.Anchor: Barbara WaltersAirdate: June 8, 2001When sold by Amazon.com, this product will be manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.

We've all seen the images of joyful homecomings from the war in Iraq. The little girl running into the arms of her father who's back safely, the young couple kissing on the tarmac, awash with tears of happiness and relief. What we don't see in many of those homecomings are the deep psychological scars that are affecting, according to medical researchers, one in six American servicemembers. These are injuries that don't get much attention, partly because the injured so rarely talk about their problems. It's taboo. ABC News shows viewers an exclusive window into that world. You'll see American servicemen and servicewomen dealing with those hidden scars. Actually talking about them. It's painful and poignant. A unique portrait of what it's like to be at home, with a war living inside your mind.
