Lilly has some mommy issues.  They didn’t start in this episode but it is when mom first appears.

Meredith Baxter make her début as Ellen Rush, Lilly and Christina’s mother.  She wants to talk to Lilly about her (Ellen’s) upcoming wedding.  It won’t be her first either.  Or her second.  Try fourth.  It’s almost enough to drive Lilly to drink.  Well, I say ‘almost’…

Beautiful Little Fool takes the squad back to a case from 1929, there was only one older than that in the whole of Cold Case.  Aspiring singer/songwriter Violet Polley was killed after returning to see the father of her child, the heir to wealthy family hit by the economic depression of the time.

240 Full HD (1080p) Lilly screencaps and a promo photo from Beautiful Little Fool are now added to the Gallery.

Somewhat appropriately given today’s date (26th May 2014) today we re-visit the Cold Case episode called Honor.

In the US today is Memorial Day, a day of remembrance for members of the American Armed Forces who have died in the service of their country.  In the UK we have a similar day, it is on the 2nd Sunday of November so is not a national holiday, called Remembrance Sunday which is primarily about those lost in the two World Wars.  We have a national holiday today in the UK as well but it is not for any specific reason.

Honor revolves around the death of a Vietnam vet who is killed shortly after returning from the war in early 1973.

We may be marking loss but we can also celebrate a gain with this episode.  Tracie Thoms (Kat Miller on CC) started on the show in this episode and did sterling work through to the end.

This, the latest entry in the KM UK Summer Of HD 2014 brings 132 HD (720p) Lilly screencaps and 6 great promo photos to the Gallery.

I always have a problem with the title of this episode.  Starting the second word with a ‘p’ always has me wanting to follow ‘saving’ with ‘private’, but I guess that the title is alluding to the Tom Hanks-lead Word War II movie from 1998.  Clever, if a little forced for my tastes.

A combination of the flashbacks including a rookie Detective Rush and the emotional elements around the deaths of a band of brothers (see what I did there?) establishes Saving Private Patrick Bubley as a Cold Case fan-favourite.  In the present (as it was in 2005 when this was first broadcast) Lilly and the squad attend a multiple shooting.  One of the victims is Luther Bubley, a younger brother of Vaughn or died in a similar shooting back in 1999.  That case was one Lilly’s first as a homicide cop, so we get to see her on the case in 1999.  Mother Bubley has only one of her five sons left now.  Can Lilly & Co. solve all four crimes and save young Patrick from a similar fate?  Cue angst.
