a review of the ACTUAL episode, not a rant about abortions...
emma-lou-who29 March 2012
This is actually one of my favourite Cold Case episodes, mostly because I love the Soundtrack. But the story is very good.

Two people are found dead under a building's foundation that was put up in 1969, the bodies are of two young adults, one a white female, the other a black male. The story takes us back to the Summer of Love in a hippie commune. The two dead people were helpers in the revolution with the white girl being in an open relationship with the leader of the revolution. Being the sixties when abortion was illegal extreme times called for some extreme measures, and the pair started volunteering for an actual doctor who could do the safest procedures. With the Afrikaner Liberation Front, angry boyfriends, and possible FBI informers, the motives and suspects keep piling up until the last minute

Realistic Portrayal

Warning: Spoilers
This episode shows one way an unplanned pregnancy was handled in 1969, before abortion was legal. And is now virtually illegal once again. Shows the issue from many different sides. It is entirely possible this storyline will once again become reality here in America.

This episode starts off in one direction (possible bombing, etc) and then weaves into another storyline. We also see poor ol' Elissa in this episode and find out an interesting tidbit about, Boss and his musical tastes. And an interesting job he had at Woodstock during the summer of 1969. This episode is not pro or anti-abortion.

I like the bit where they went to Canada instead of going to war
