The Promise

Season 3, Episode 2

Lilly investigates the 2004 death of an 18-year-old woman who was killed in a frat-house fire. A picture the girl took with her phone shortly before she died shows her being held down and alcohol being forced down her throat.

Kathryn Morris (Actor) .. Lilly Rush
Born: January 28, 1969
Birthplace: Cincinnati, Ohio, United States
Trivia: Held in warm regard by Xena-philes for her role as the vulnerable villain Najara in the popular fantasy adventure series Xena: Warrior Princess, actress Kathy Morris sports an impressively eclectic resumé, appearing in everything from television's creepy Poltergeist: The Legacy to such dramatic roles as The Contender (2000).Morris was born in Cincinnati, but grew up traveling constantly and living a Partridge Family-esque existence with her close-knit family/bandmates from the age of five. Though she would spend time in such geographically diverse climates as Brooklyn, TX, and the cold of Connecticut, it was with her early experiences in the spotlight that Morris found the most fulfillment. Seguing into theater after her youthful experiences on the stage, she began to refine her acting skills and soon made the decision to pursue a professional career as an actress. Laboring through countless hours of free work and waitressing in the years she spent launching her career, Morris finally got her break when cast alongside Mark Harmon in the made-for-television film The Long Road Home in 1991. Making her feature debut opposite 15-minute rap sensation Vanilla Ice in Cool as Ice the same year, Morris appeared in more made-for-TV movies (Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All [1994]) and low-budget thrillers (Sleepstalker [1995] and The Prophecy II [1998]) in the following years, Morris began to truly gain momentum in 1997 when she was cast in television's Pensacola: Wings of Gold and the aforementioned Xena: Warrior Princess. Never having been the athletic type, Morris left most of the fantastic swashbuckling of her sympathetic villainess in the physically demanding Xena to stunt doubles. After appearances in The Contender and the nuclear war thriller Deterrence (2000), Morris leapt into her biggest film yet with her role in Steven Spielberg's A.I. (2001). Spielberg also cast her in his next film, 2002's Minority Report, playing Tom Cruise's estranged wife.In 2003, Morris returned to television in the CBS series Cold Case. Playing Philadelphia Detective Lilly Rush, Morris was the lead in the show, which ran for seven seasons. After Cold Case wrapped in 2010, she played the small role of Billy Beane's (Brad Pitt) wife in the Oscar-nominated film Moneyball (2011), but her scenes were ultimately cut from the movie. In 2013, Morris appeared in the Hallmark Channel's TV Movie The Sweeter Side of Life.
John Finn (Actor) .. John Stillman
Born: September 30, 1952
Trivia: With a countenance that can effortlessly suggest a beleaguered everyman or a no-nonsense tough, American character actor John Finn has sustained a prolonged and impressively varied career. A New York City native, Finn received one of his earliest assignments under the aegis of Stuart Rosenberg, as Ginty in the ethnic drama (and cult hit) The Pope of Greenwich Village (1984). The actor's resumé over the following ten years packed in a series of key Hollywood films of varying quality -- from the wonderful Ed Zwick drama Glory (1989) and the fine Alan Pakula political thriller The Pelican Brief (1993) to the Bob Clark buddy comedy Loose Cannons (1990). Finn also appeared in occasional telemovies, notably the 1991 Posing: Inspired by Three Real Stories, as Jimmy Lanahan, the husband of homemaker-turned-Playmate Meredith Lanahan (Lynda Carter). After appearances on such hit series as The X-Files, Frasier, and NYPD Blue, and parts in the major studio releases Catch Me If You Can and Analyze That (2002), Finn landed one of his first regular series roles, playing Lieutenant John Stillman on the popular detective program Cold Case.
Thom Barry (Actor) .. Will Jeffries
Born: December 06, 1950
Birthplace: Cleveland, Ohio, United States
Trivia: With his distinct appearance, the bald and imposing African-American player Thom Barry made a seemingly perfect character actor, and thus found himself frequently cast as guards, police detectives, and heavies in mainstream Hollywood features, from the early '90s on. He landed a bit part as a guard in Rob Reiner's The American President (1995), appeared as Samahani in Congo (1995), and played Sgt. Marcus in the Shaquille O'Neal-headlined superhero picture Steel (1997). Barry maintained a higher profile as Agent Bilkins in two Jerry Bruckheimer-produced action pictures, The Fast and the Furious (2001) and its sequel 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003). Additionally, after years of guest-acting work on the small screen, he signed for his first regular role -- that of homicide investigator Will Jeffries -- on the popular detective series Cold Case (2006).
Jeremy Ratchford (Actor) .. Nick Vera
Born: August 06, 1965
Birthplace: Kitchener, Ontario, Canada
Trivia: After a series of very brief appearances in low-rent Hollywood films and studio products including Junior (1986), Short Circuit 2 (1988), and Welcome Home (1989), Canadian character actor Jeremy Ratchford revealed a predilection for slightly dark, crime-themed material, even as he occasionally branched off into other genres. Career highlights include a portrayal of Deputy Andy Russell in Clint Eastwood's 1992 Oscar winner Unforgiven, Harvey Sanders in the made-for-television docudrama Getting Gotti (1994), and Darryl Marquette in a guest appearance on NYPD Blue. In 2006, Ratchford accepted the regular role of investigator Nick Vera on the detective series Cold Case.
Danny Pino (Actor) .. Scotty Valens
Born: April 15, 1974
Birthplace: Miami, Florida, United States
Trivia: Is the son of Cuban immigrants. In his youth, aspired to become a baseball player or a lawyer, or join the Coast Guard. Was a lifeguard in Miami as a teen. Met his future wife, Lilly, during a middle-school theater class when they were just 13. They continued their education together through junior high, high school, college and graduate school.

Sarah Brown (Actor) .. Josie Sutton
Born: February 18, 1975
Birthplace: Eureka, California, United States
Trivia: Attended 13 different schools before graduating from high school. First job on TV was as a lead on VR Troopers, a 1990s children's action show made by creators of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Won three Daytime Emmy Awards (in 1997, 1998 and 2000) for playing Caroline "Carly" Corinthos on General Hospital. After leaving General Hospital for a second time in 2009, she immediately began work on The Bold in the Beautiful: Her final General Hospital appearance aired one day prior to her first appearance on The Bold and the Beautiful. In May 2010, she participated in the Women's Empowerment Build for Habitat for Humanity (she was part of Team Bold and Beautiful). Has celiac disease, and is an advocate for awareness about the condition. Hobbies include playing various musical instruments, dancing and snowboarding.
Lindsay Hollister (Actor) .. Laurie
Born: June 03, 1977
James Immekus (Actor) .. Dirk
Joel McCrary (Actor) .. Malcolm
Pat Skipper (Actor) .. Joseph Avery
Born: September 23, 1958
Birthplace: Lakeland, Florida, United States
Trivia: Character actor Pat Skipper specialized in everyman roles, with a slightly stocky appearance that enabled him to convincingly play rough-hewn types on some occasions, law enforcement officers on others. He landed his first major film credit in 1987, with a bit part as a postal inspector in Oliver Stone's corporate-evisceration drama Wall Street, then alternated, for the next two decades, between A-list theatrical releases (Lethal Weapon 2, Predator 2, Independence Day) and direct-to-video potboilers (Demonstone, Ed Gein). Skipper was particularly memorable as Mason Strode, the ill-fated father of psychopath victim Laurie Strode, in Rob Zombie's 2007 gore-filled remake of the John Carpenter classic Halloween.
Nick Wechsler (Actor) .. Manny
Born: September 03, 1978
Birthplace: Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
Trivia: Is the fifth of eight boys in his family. Decided to give acting a try after seeing a play in high school and thinking, "Man, this stinks. I can do better than them." He moved to Hollywood immediately after graduation. Had his first starring role in a television show as Trek in Team Knight Rider. Auditioned for four different roles on Roswell before being cast as Kyle.
