…because I missed it. :mad: My own fault…I forgot that when CBS has a 4:15 NFL game, you have to DVR _Cold Case_ for two hours, not just one. Since we knew the last 20 minutes would be cut off, we didn’t bother watching it. Not a huge deal – they’ll show it again later in the season. However, can anyone who watched it provide any overall story arc points that we should know about? Not things specific to whatever this week’s case was…things that you know will be touched on throughout the season. Any new characters added or anything? ---

The show opened with Rush coming back to work after her being hospitalized for being shot. She is having a bad time (she physically jumped after having a flashback when someone slammed a file drawer shut). She hasn’t been to psych yet, but Stillman told her it’s mandatory after a shooting. That was the only story that might be relevant to the whole season. The case revolved around three young kids who were beatened to death and the two very very strange teenaged boys who were convicted of the crime and are now in prison. ---
