On the last episode of Cold Case, the team investigated the 1988 murder of Philadelphia news anchor Jane Everett.  After being found strangled in the park in the middle of the night, they discovered that she was just about to report on a huge scandal about a local factory's fatal asbestos level.  As it turned out, the news of the show jumping to number in the ratings because of her didn't sink well with his co-worker Mort.

During the flashback, we saw the victim, who arrived late, telling the producer to get a real story.  Meanwhile, there was something wrong with the teleprompter prompting Everett to think that someone may have manipulated it.  As everyone scrambled to fix the thing, Everett still managed to pull it off without the need to go to commercial.  Later, however, Everett was found dead.  Fortunately, someone found a footage of her getting a phone call while taping a special report, which happened around six hours before the murder.

On tonight's episode of Cold Case, Rush and the team reopen the 1967 murder case of a brush salesman after his remains are found at the bottom of a duck pond.  As usual, they figure out that there is something more to this case than what was previously obvious.  Eventually, they discover that the salesman has a hidden past and that some people in the area are actually afraid that he would reveal some secrets he knew about them.

Cold Case stars Kathryn Morris as Lilly Rush and Danny Pino as Scotty Valens.  The cast also includes John Finn, Jeremy Ratchford, Thom Barry, and Tracie Thoms.
