I don't know if this tidbit has been given in any of the fall interviews. But I just love what I heard about Lilly. Don't know if it will impact her character noticeably or not.....

Cold Case is back with its fifth season, airing Sunday nights at 9 on CBS. For its latest offering, cast and crew recently returned to their Philadelphia stomping grounds for production of several sequences for the crime drama.
When last season came to a close, Detective Lilly Rush, played by Kathryn Morris, was fighting for her life, after being gunned down. Ahead of that the investigator with a chip on her shoulder had just lost her alcoholic mother.
"This season, Rush is going to be dealing with the fallout of the shooting, and so are the others," Veena Sud, one of Cold Case's executive producers, revealed. Sud, who also wrote the season-opening episode, "Thrill Kill," spoke to the Philadelphia Inquirer during Cold Case's two-day filming on the streets of Philly.
"For Lilly, her mother's death symbolizes many things," Sud added. "A closing of a chapter in her life, a need to move past some emotional issues."
Sud spent two days with six of the principal cast members and 20 of Cold Case's production staff to shoot five street scenes that are scheduled to air in the first five installments of the current fifth season. Some of the series producers, along with photography director, Tony Jannelli, scouted locations for the two-day shoot before the arrival of their actors.
"We want to get the fabulous architecture, the character of the population, its diversity," Jannelli explained. "Philadelphia is a huge, great, wonderful mix."
Among the spots they checked out were the Swan Fountain on Logan Square, the surrounding expanse around City Hall and the neighborhood of 19th and Parrish Streets. Holly Dale, director of one of the episodes set to be filmed in Philadelphia, chose the ornate stone façade of the Grand Masonic Lodge on Broad Street.
"For the directors, it's a visual essay," Dale said. "In this show, Philadelphia is part of the story."
If the directors, producers and photographers feasted on the city's optical delights, lead stars Danny Pino and Kathryn Morris immersed themselves in the local color through extensive interaction with the residents. They didn't retreat into their trailers during film breaks, opting instead to mingle with the Philly folk, graciously signing autographs and posing for phone camera pictures.
"There's a certain amount of telling-it-like-it-is here," Pino observed. "People don't hesitate to talk to you, good or bad. They'll tell you the bad because it might do you some good to hear it. I love it, because it gives us a clear view of the world we're interpreting."
"I know this city and I love it," Morris also enthused. "It's really blossomed lately. It was a lot rougher when I lived here."
On her Cold Case persona, Morris revealed, "She comes back to work like usual, pretending that nothing happened but when she was in the hospital, Lilly saw the beyond and she saw that she's alone."

Since I'm spoiler free I have no idea what will or won't happen. ;D It has a better impact with the element of surprise for each ep.
