Stand Up and Holler

One of the very best Cold Case episodes. Rush and the team reinvestigate the death 10 years before of high school cheerleader Rainey Karlsen, who was found dead on the school football field with drugs and alcohol in her system. What follows is a tale of peer pressure and the devastating effect it can have on even the closest of relationships. It's superbly written and directed, and the regular cast are as good as ever. Of the guest stars, Whitney Able as Rainey, Aviva Baumann as lifelong best friend Celeste Church, AnnaLynne McCord as Becca Abrams (snarky head of the cheersquad), and Jonathon Trent as Joe Vives-Alvarez (high school geek and loner, whom Rainey comes to see as more than that) all stand out. The truth when it comes and the victim's final scene are heartbreaking. 10/10.
